There currently is a large effort to explore spin-orbit effects in semiconductor structures with the ultimate goal of manipulating electron spins with gates. A search for materials with large spin-orbit coupling is therefore important. We…

Fermi's golden rule (FGR) offers an empirical framework for understanding the dynamics of spin-lattice relaxation in magnetic molecules, encompassing mechanisms like direct (one-phonon) and Raman (two-phonon) processes. These principles…

Hole spin relaxation in $p$-type (111) GaAs quantum wells is investigated in the case with only the lowest hole subband, which is heavy-hole like in (111) GaAs/AlAs and light-hole like in (111) GaAs/InP quantum wells, being relevant. The…

Spin relaxation of a single electron in a weakly coupled double quantum dot is calculated numerically. The phonon assisted spin flip is allowed by the presence of the linear and cubic spin-orbit couplings and nuclear spins. The rate is…

The theory of spin relaxation of conduction electrons is developed for zinc-blende-type quantum wells grown on (110)-oriented substrate. It is shown that, in asymmetric structures, the relaxation of electron spin initially oriented along…

Putting a general, physically relevant upper bound on equilibration times in closed quantum systems is a recently much pursued endeavor. In PRX, 7, 031027 (2017) Garc\'{\i}a-Pintos et al. suggest such a bound. We point out that the general…

We have studied the spin dynamics of a dense two-dimensional electron gas confined in a GaAs/AlGaAs triple quantum well by using time-resolved Kerr rotation and resonant spin amplification. Strong anisotropy of the spin relaxation time up…

We present a detailed experimental and theoretical analysis of the spin dynamics of two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) in a series of n-doped GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wells. Picosecond-resolution polarized pump-probe reflection techniques…

We investigate the spin relaxation of $p$-type GaAs quantum wires by numerically solving the fully microscopic kinetic spin Bloch equations. We find that the quantum-wire size influences the spin relaxation time effectively by modulating…

Spin relaxation time of conduction electrons through the Elliot-Yafet, D'yakonov-Perel and Bir-Aronov-Pikus mechanisms is calculated theoretically for bulk GaAs, GaSb, InAs and InSb of both $n$- and $p$-type. Relative importance of each…

We study the spin dynamics in a high-mobility two-dimensional electron gas confined in a GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well. An unusual magnetic field dependence of the spin relaxation is found: as the magnetic field becomes stronger, the spin…

The carrier spin dynamics in a n-doped (In,Ga)As/GaAs quantum well has been studied by time-resolved Faraday rotation and ellipticity techniques in the temperature range down to 430 milliKelvin. These techniques give data with very…

Spin dynamics of optically excited electrons confined in asymmetric coupled quantum wells are investigated through time resolved Faraday rotation experiments. The inter-well coupling is shown to depend on applied electric field and barrier…

We investigate the spin dynamics of electrons in quantum wells where the Rashba type of spin-orbit coupling is present in the form of random nanosize domains. We study the effect of magnetic field on the spin relaxation in these systems and…

We have studied the physical processes responsible for the spin -flip in GaAs quantum dots. We have calculated the rates for different mechanisms which are related to spin-orbit coupling and cause a spin-flip during the inelastic relaxation…

Electron spin dynamics in InAs/GaAs heterostructures consisting of a single layer of InAs (1/3$\sim$1 monolayer) embeded in (001) and (311)A GaAs matrix was studied by means of time-resolved Kerr rotation spectroscopy. The spin relaxation…

Silicon is a leading candidate material for spin-based devices, and two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) formed in silicon heterostructures have been proposed for both spin transport and quantum dot quantum computing applications. The key…

We investigate the electron spin relaxation of $n$-type InAs quantum wires by numerically solving the fully microscopic kinetic spin Bloch equations with the relevant scattering explicitly included. We find that the quantum-wire size and…

We have studied the edge spin accumulation in a high mobility two-dimensional electron gas formed in a symmetric well with two subbands. This study is strongly motivated by the recent experiment of Hernandez et al. [Phys. Rev. B {\bf 88},…

A fully microscopic theory of electron spin relaxation by the D'yakonov-Perel' type spin-orbit coupling is developed for a semiconductor quantum well with a magnetic field applied in the growth direction of the well. We derive the Bloch…
