We investigate theoretically the spin echo signal of an electron localized in a quantum dot and interacting with a bath of nuclear spins. We consider the regime of very low magnetic fields (corresponding to fields as low as a militesla in…

We investigate the in-plane spin relaxation of electrons due to the D'yakonov-Perel' and Elliot-Yafet mechanisms including the intra- and inter-valley processes in monolayer MoS$_2$. We construct the effective Hamiltonian for the conduction…

Metal halide perovskites make up a promising class of materials for semiconductor spintronics. Here we report a systematic investigation of coherent spin precession, spin dephasing and spin relaxation of electrons and holes in two hybrid…

We study the decoherence of a single electron spin in an isolated quantum dot induced by hyperfine interaction with nuclei for times smaller than the nuclear spin relaxation time. The decay is caused by the spatial variation of the electron…

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…

Electrons in graphene are theoretically expected to retain spin states much longer than most materials, making graphene a promising platform for spintronics and quantum information technologies. Here, we use first-principles density-matrix…

Electron-phonon ($e$-ph) interactions are key to understanding the dynamics of electrons in materials, and can be modeled accurately from first-principles. However, when electrons and holes form Coulomb-bound states (excitons), quantifying…

The phonon-bottleneck problem in the relaxation of two-level systems (spins) via direct phonon processes is considered numerically in the weak-excitation limit where the Schroedinger equation for the spin-phonon system simplifies. The…

We investigate ultrafast demagnetization due to electron-phonon interaction in a model band-ferromagnet. We show that the microscopic mechanism behind the spin dynamics due to electron-phonon interaction is the interplay of scattering and…

A unique spin depolarization mechanism, induced by the presence of g-factor anisotropy and intervalley scattering, is revealed by spin transport measurements on long-distance germanium devices in a longitudinal magnetic field. The…

We calculate the acoustic phonon-assisted exciton spin relaxation in single self-assembled In$_{1-x}$Ga$_x$As/GaAs quantum dots using an atomic empirical pseudopotential method. We show that the transition from bright to dark exciton states…

Inspired by recent experiments on the Sr-doped nickelates, $La_{2-x}Sr_xNiO_4$, we propose a minimal microscopic model capable to describe the variety of the observed quasi-static charge/lattice modulations and the resulting magnetic and…

The concept of anisotropy of spin relaxation in non-magnetic metals with respect to the spin direction of the injected electrons relative to the crystal orientation is introduced. The effect is related to an anisotropy of the Elliott-Yafet…

We study decoherence of an electron spin qubit in a quantum dot due to charge noise. We find that at the lowest order, the pure dephasing channel is suppressed for both $1/f$ charge noise and Johnson noise, so that charge noise leads to a…

We theoretically study the $(1,1)$ triplet to $(0,2)$ singlet relaxation rate in a lateral gate-defined double quantum dot tuned to the regime of Pauli spin blockade. We present a detailed derivation of the effective phonon density of…

An effective spin relaxation mechanism that leads to electron spin decoherence in a quantum dot is proposed. In contrast to the common calculations of spin-flip transitions between the Kramers doublets, we take into account a process of…

We advance spin noise spectroscopy to the ultimate limit of single spin detection. This technique enables the measurement of the spin dynamic of a single heavy hole localized in a flat (InGa)As quantum dot. Magnetic field and light…

Spin-phonon interaction is known to drive magnetic relaxation in solid-state systems, but little evidence is available on how it affects coherence time. Here we extend fourth-order quantum master equations to account for coherence terms and…

Interactions of electron spins with rotational degrees of freedom during collisions or with external fields are fundamental processes that limit the coherence time of spin gases. We experimentally study the decoherence of hot cesium spins…

The unique combination of outstanding optical quality and attractive spin properties opens new avenues for optical spin control in hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite semiconductors. Using the optically detected magnetic resonance…
