Spin-orbital phase synchronization in the magnetic field-driven electron dynamics in a double-well potential.

We study the dynamics of an electron confined in a one-dimensional double-well potential in the presence of driving external magnetic fields. The orbital motion of the electron is coupled to the spin dynamics by spin-orbit interaction of the Dresselhaus type. We derive an effective time-dependent model Hamiltonian for the orbital motion of the electron and obtain a condition for synchronization of the orbital and the spin dynamics. We find an analytical expression for the Arnold 'tongue' and propose an experimental scheme for realizing the proposed synchronization.
