Abstract

Strong electron and spin correlations are studied in parallel-coupled double quantum dots with interdot spin superexchange JJ. In the Kondo regime with {\it}{degenerate} dot energy levels, a coherent transport occurs at zero temperature, where two entangled (bonding and antibonding) resonances are formed near the Fermi energy. When increasing JJ or the dot-lead parallel-coupling \QTR{it}{asymmetry} ratio Γ2/Γ1\Gamma_{2}/\Gamma_{1}, a swap between two entangled resonances occurs and the line shapes of the linear conductance are interchanged. The zero-bias differential conductance shows a peak at the critical values. Such a peculiar effect with the virtue of many-body coherence may be useful in future quantum computing.
