Indirect magnetic exchange interaction mediated by bound Landau states in 2DES

The possibility of indirect exchange coupling mediated by Landau electrons bound to magnetic impurities in 2DES is studied here. The importance of the resonance scattering of the Landau electrons with the impurities is emphasized due to its spin selectivity which results in strong spin polarization of the localized Landau states. The bound Landau states act as mediators of the superexchange interaction resulting in an antiferromagnetic interaction between the nuclear spins of the impurities. The coupling constant, between these nuclear spins, J, is presented for the case of a weak scattering limit and found to depend strongly on the ratio of the impurity separation over the magnetic length. Possible applications of these results may include a long-range mechanism for coupling between two nuclear spins to be used as a qubits interaction with a spacing distance of the order of the magnetic length.
