摘要
We investigate the influence of the spin-orbit interactions (SOIs) on the electron distribution and the optical absorption of a two-electron quantum dot. It is shown that the interplay between the SOIs makes the two-electron quantum dot behave like two laterally coupled quantum dots and the anisotropic distribution can be rotated from [110] to [1 (1) over bar0] by reversing the direction of the perpendicular electric field and detect it through the optical absorption spectrum.
