Coherent quantum phenomena can only emerge when decoherence is minimized, and mastery over decoherence is technologically crucial for designing and operating functional quantum devices. However, its microscopic mechanisms in…
We discuss decoherence in discrete-time quantum walks in terms of a phenomenological model that distinguishes spin and spatial decoherence. We identify the dominating mechanisms that affect quantum walk experiments realized with neutral…
A quantum cluster expansion method is developed for the problem of localized electron spin decoherence due to dipolar fluctuations of lattice nuclear spins. At the lowest order it provides a microscopic explanation for the Lorentzian…
Here we study the effect of decoherence on elastic and polaronic transport via discrete quantum states. The calculations are performed with the help of nonperturbative computational scheme, based on the Green's function theory within the…
The classical drift diffusion (DD) model of spin transport treats spin relaxation via an empirical parameter known as the ``spin diffusion length''. According to this model, the ensemble averaged spin of electrons drifting and diffusing in…
We compare two different models of transport of light in a disordered system with a spherical Gaussian distribution of scatterers. A coupled dipole model, keeping into account all interference effects, is compared to an incoherent model,…
Spin transport properties of a spin-polarized two-dimensional electron gas are studied in the presence of electron-electron interactions. Longitudinal and transverse spin diffusion coefficients are calculated with the quantum transport…
We employ the method of the theory of open quantum systems to analyze spin relaxation and decoherence in semiconductors in the presence of a magnetic field. We derive a set of Bloch equations for electron spin with a fully microscopic…
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…
The theory of spin diffusion is extended to the case of spin lattice relaxation and spin diffusion in an inhomogeneous field in spin systems with non-equidistant energy spectrum. Two coupled equations describing the mutual relaxation and…
We perform a brief but critical review of the Landauer picture of transport that clarifies how decoherence appears in this approach. On this basis, we present different models that allow the study of the coherent and decoherent effects of…
The classical drift diffusion (DD) model of spin transport treats spin relaxation via an empirical parameter known as the ``spin diffusion length''. According to this model, the ensemble averaged spin of electrons drifting and diffusing in…
Spin transport properties at finite electric and magnetic fields are studied by using the generalized semiclassical Boltzmann equation. It is found that the spin diffusion equation for non-equilibrium spin density and spin currents involves…
We discuss a general framework to address spin decoherence resulting from fluctuations in a spin Hamiltonian. We performed a systematic study on spin decoherence in the compound K$_6$[V$_{15}$As$_6$O$_{42}$(D$_2$O)] $\cdot$ 8D$_2$O, using…
We develop a semiclassical kinetic theory for electron spin relaxation in semiconductors. Our approach accounts for elastic as well as inelastic scattering and treats Elliott-Yafet and motional-narrowing processes, such as D'yakonov-Perel'…
In inclusive deep-inelastic lepton-hadron scattering multi-photon exchange between the leptonic and the hadronic part of the process causes single spin asymmetries. The asymmetries exist for a polarized target as well as a polarized…
We give a theoretical treatment of the interaction of electronic excitations (excitons) in biomolecules and quantum dots with the surrounding polar solvent. Significant quantum decoherence occurs due to the interaction of the electric…
We introduce a computational framework for first-principles density matrix transport within the Wigner function formalism to predict transport of quantum-mechanical degrees of freedom such as spin over long time and length scales. This…
We study the problem of spin diffusion in magnetic systems without long-range order. We discuss the example of the 1D spin chain. For the system described by the Heisenberg Hamiltonian we show that there are no diffusive excitations.…
Quantum decoherence-the loss of quantum coherence due to interactions with an environment-plays a central role in quantum transport, and controlling this ubiquitous yet inevitable phenomenon is essential for practical quantum technologies.…
