Electron Spin Relaxation in a Semiconductor Quantum Well
A fully microscopic theory of electron spin relaxation by the D’yakonov-Perel’ type spin-orbit coupling is developed for a semiconductor quantum well in an ambient magnetic field applied perpendicular to the plane of the well. We derive Bloch equations for an electron spin in the well and determine explicit microscopic expressions for the spin relaxation times. The dependencies of the electron ...
متن کاملSpin relaxation in quantum dots
Results are given for spin relaxation in quantum dots due to acoustic phonon-assisted flips of single spins at low temperatures. The dominant spin relaxation processes for varying dot size, temperature, and magnetic field are identified. These processes are mediated by the spin-orbit interaction and are described within a generalized effective mass treatment. Particular attention is given to ph...
متن کاملTemperature and electron density dependence of spin relaxation in GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well
Temperature and carrier density-dependent spin dynamics for GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wells (QWs) with different structural symmetries have been studied by using time-resolved Kerr rotation technique. The spin relaxation time is measured to be much longer for the symmetrically designed GaAs QW comparing with the asymmetrical one, indicating the strong influence of Rashba spin-orbit coupling on spin r...
متن کاملElectron Spin-Phonon Relaxation in Quantum Dots
We calculate the spin relaxation rates in parabolic quantum dots due to the phonon modulation of the spin-orbit interaction in presence of an external magnetic field. Both, deformation potential (DP) and piezoelectric (PE) electron-phonon couplings are included in the Pavlov-Firsov spin-phonon Hamiltonian. We demonstrate that the spin relaxation rates are particularly sensitive with the Landé g...
متن کاملSpin-Lattice Relaxation in Si Quantum Dots
We consider spin-lattice relaxation processes for electrons trapped in lateral Si quantum dots in a [001] inversion layer. Such dots are characterized by strong confinement in the direction perpendicular to the surface and much weaker confinement in the lateral direction. The spin relaxation is assumed to be due to the modulation of electron g-factor by the phonon-induced strain, as was shown p...
