We theoretically consider the effects of having unintentional charged impurities in laterally coupled two-dimensional double (GaAs) quantum-dot systems, where each dot contains one or two electrons and a single charged impurity. Using molecular orbital and configuration interaction methods, we calculate the effect of the impurity on the two-electron energy spectrum of each individual dot as well as on the spectrum of the coupled-double-dot two-electron system. We find that the singlet-triplet exchange splitting between the two lowest-energy states, both for the individual dots and the coupled-dot system, depends sensitively on the location of the impurity and its coupling strength (i.e. the effective charge). A strong electron-impurity coupling breaks down the equality of the two doubly occupied singlets in the left and the right dots, leading to a mixing between different spin singlets. As a result, the maximally entangled qubit states are no longer fully obtained in the zero-magnetic-field case. Moreover, a repulsive impurity results in a triplet-singlet transition as the impurity effective charge increases or the impurity position changes. We comment on the impurity effect in spin qubit operations in the double-dot system based on our numerical results.
