We present measurements on non-local cotunneling current control in a system of two magnetic impurities - realized by two quantum dots - coupled through an open conducting region, which can be attributed to the influence of the effective interaction between magnetic moments [1-3]. The sample consists of two lateral quantum dots connected via an open region of about 300 nm, created by Local Anodic Oxidation with an AFM on a GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure with a 2DEG 34nm beneath the surface. The measurements have been performed with the standard lock-in technique, in a dilution refrigerator, at about 100 mK electron temperature. We investigate the effective interaction between magnetic moments in dependence on the dot coupling to the central region and on an in-plane magnetic field. The interaction between the magnetic moments is destroyed for weak dot coupling to the central region and for magnetic fields higher than 8T.
