Electronic transport through two single-level quantum dots attached in parallel to ferromagnetic leads has been analyzed theoretically. The intra-dot Coulomb correlation was taken into account, while the inter-dot hopping and Coulomb repulsion have been neglected. The dots, however, may interact via the external leads when the off-diagonal elements of the coupling matrix do not vanish. Conductance and tunnel magnetoresistance associated with the magnetization rotation from antiparallel to parallel configurations are calculated by the non-equilibrium Green function technique. The relevant Green functions are derived from the appropriate equation of motion in the Hartree–Fock approximation. We focus on the interference effects due to nonzero off-diagonal elements of the coupling matrix.

Spin-dependent transport through two coupled single-level quantum dots attached to ferromagnetic leads with collinear (parallel and antiparallel) magnetizations is analyzed theoretically. The intra-dot Coulomb correlation is taken into account, whereas the inter-dot Coulomb repulsion is neglected. Transport characteristics, including conductance and tunnel magnetoresistance associated with the magnetization rotation from parallel to antiparallel configurations, are calculated by the noneqiulibrium Green function technique. The relevant Green functions are derived by the equation of motion method in the Hartree-Fock approximation. We have found a splitting of the Fano peak, induced by the intra-dot Coulomb interaction. Apart from this, the intra-dot electron correlations are shown to lead to an enhancement of the tunnel magnetoresistance effect.
