The magnetic properties, such as the magnetization and the magnetic susceptibility, of two interacting electrons confined in double quantum dots had been calculated. The double quantum dots is under the effect of an applied uniform magnetic field taken to be along z-direction, in addition to a Gaussian barrier. The variational and exact diagonalization methods had been used to solve the Hamiltonian and compute the magnetic properties of the double quantum dots. In addition, we had investigated the dependence of the magnetization and the magnetic susceptibility on the system’s parameters. The singlet-triplet transitions in the ground state of the double quantum dots spectra and the corresponding jumps in the magnetization and magnetic susceptibility curves had also been shown. The comparisons show that our results are in very good agreement with reported works.
