Abstract

We propose a spin-sensitive scanning probe microscopy experiment on double quantum dots in Pauli blockade conditions. Electric spin resonance is induced by an AC voltage applied to the scanning gate which causes lifting of the Pauli blockade of the current. The stationary Hamiltonian eigenstates are used as a basis for description of the spin dynamics with the AC potential of the probe. For the two-electron system we evaluate the transition rates from triplet T+ state to singlet S or triplet T0 states, i.e. to conditions in which the Pauli blockade of the current is lifted. The rates of the spin-flip transitions are consistent with the transition matrix elements and strongly dependent on the tip position. Probing the spin densities and identification of the final transition state are discussed.
