Abstract

The problem of electron decoherence at low temperature is analyzed from the perspective of recent experiments on decoherence rate measurement and on related localization phenomena in low-dimensional systems. Importance of decoherence at zero temperature, perhaps induced by quantum fluctuations, is put in a broader context.
