Decoherence and dephasing in spin-based solid state quantum computers

Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics 2017-08-23 v2 Quantum Physics

Abstract

We discuss the operational definition of decoherence in various solid state systems. In particular, we review, in the context of spin-based solid state quantum computation, the introduction of T1T_1 and T2T_2 to describe decoherence in a two level system. We provide a perspective on recent experiments involving the manipulation of spin coherence in semiconductors, and discuss specific decoherence and dephasing issues in electron spin-based quantum dot quantum computer architectures.
