摘要
We perform real-time charge counting with a quantum point contact (QPC) for the last six electrons in a single quantum dot. At zero magnetic field, the charge-counting statistics show distinctive non-thermal-equilibrium effects for the even and odd electron numbers. A detailed study relates this difference to the excitation from the spin singlet state to triplet states driven by QPC back-action. At a finite magnetic field, spin excitations to different triplet states and Zeeman states are also observed. A master-equation model is developed to quantitatively characterize the back-action-driven spin excitation rate.
