Abstract

We show that the electron transmittivity of single electrons propagating along a one-dimensional (1D) wire in the presence of two magnetic impurities is affected by the entanglement between the impurity spins. For suitable values of the electron wave vector, there are two maximally entangled spin states which, respectively, make the wire completely transparent whatever the electron spin state or strongly inhibit electron transmission
