The spin relaxation time of electrons in GaAs and GaN are determined with a model that includes momentum scattering by phonons and ionized impurities, and spin scattering by the Elliot-Yafet, D'yakonov-Perel, and Bir-Aronov-Pikus…
The properties of the least-bound vibrational level (v=14) of the quintet sigma state formed during the ultracold collision of two spin-polarized metastable helium atoms are crucial to studies of photoassociation spectroscopy of metastable…
The radiative decay of excited states of the negative ion of rhodium, Rh$^-$, has been investigated experimentally and theoretically. The experiments were conducted at the Double ElectroStatic Ion Ring Experiment (DESIREE) facility at…
We study the transport of spin polarized electrons in n-GaAs using spatially resolved continuous wave Faraday rotation. From the measured steady state distribution, we determine spin relaxation times under drift conditions and, in the…
Understanding the spin-relaxation mechanism of single adatoms is an essential step towards creating atomic magnetic memory bits or even qubits. Here we present an essentially parameter-free theory by combining \textit{ab-initio} electronic…
We investigate many-body effects on the spin-split electron bands in altermagnets by computing the electron self-energy arising from interactions with magnons, phonons, and hybridized magnon-phonon modes. These interactions lead to band…
Anisotropic electron spin lifetimes in strained undoped (In,Ga)As/GaAs (110) quantum wells of different width and height are investigated by time-resolved Faraday rotation and time-resolved transmission and are compared to the…
We consider a quantum-mechanical analysis of spontaneous emission in terms of an effective two-level system with a vacuum decay rate $\Gamma_0$ and transition angular frequency $\omega_A$. Our analysis is in principle exact, even though…
The longest spin lifetimes in bulk n-GaAs exceed 100 ns for doping concentrations near the metal-insulator transition (J.M. Kikkawa, D.D. Awschalom, Phys. Rev. Lett. 80, 4313 (1998)). The respective electronic states have yet not been…
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…
Tanabe et al (Phys. Rev. A {\bf 82} 040101(R) 2010) have experimentally demonstrated that the emission properties of unstable atoms in entangled and product states are different. The authors define an apparent decay time as a fitting…
Highly excited C$_2{}^{-}$ ions prominently feature electron detachment at a mean decay time near 3 milliseconds with hitherto unexplained origin. Considering various sources of unimolecular decay, we attribute the signal to the electronic…
The dynamics of Ag(111) surface state electrons confined to nanoscale hexagonal and triangular vacancy islands are investigated using scanning tunneling spectroscopy. The lifetimes of quantised states with significant amplitude near the…
Acoustic phonons in piezoelectric materials strongly couple to electrons through a macroscopic electric field. We show that this coupling leads to a momentum-dependent divergence of the Fan-Migdal electron linewidth. We then develop a…
The spin lifetime and Hanle signal amplitude dependence on bias current has been investigated in insulating Al$_{0.3}$Ga$_{0.7}$As:Si using a three-terminal Hanle effect geometry. The amplitudes of the Hanle signals are much larger for…
Long-lived ionic quantum states known as metastable electronic states in highly-charged ions (HCIs) are of great interest in fundamental physics. Especially, it generates transitions with very narrow natural linewidth which is a promising…
Recent measurements of electron escape from a non-equilibrium charged quantum dot are interpreted within a 2D separable model. The confining potential is derived from 3D self-consistent Poisson-Thomas-Fermi calculations. It is found that…
Electron antineutrinos are detected in organic liquid scintillator based neutrino experiments by means of the inverse beta decay, producing both a positron and a neutron. The positron may form a bound state together with an electron, called…
Doped ZnO is a promising material for spintronics applications. For such applications, it is important to understand the spin dynamics and particularly the spin coherence of this II-VI semiconductor. The spin lifetime $\tau_{s}$ has been…
We present an ab initio calculation of the k and spin-resolved electronic lifetimes in the half-metallic Heusler compounds Co(2)MnSi and Co(2)FeSi. We determine the spin-flip and spin-conserving contributions to the lifetimes and study in…
