We examine environmental effects of surrounding nuclear spins on the electron spin relaxation of the N@C60 molecule (which consists of a nitrogen atom at the centre of a fullerene cage). Using dilute solutions of N@C60 in regular and…

Endohedral fullerenes encapsulating a spin-active atom or ion within a carbon cage offer a route to self-assembled arrays such as spin chains. In the case of metallofullerenes the charge transfer between the atom and the fullerene cage has…

Encapsulated atomic hydrogen in cube-shaped octa-silsesquioxane (POSS) cages of the Si$_8$O$_{12}$R$_8$ type (where R is an organic group) is the simplest alternative stable system to paramagnetic endohedral fullerenes (N@C$_{60}$ or…

The long standing problem of inexplicably short spin relaxation in carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is examined. The curvature-mediated spin-orbital interaction is shown to induce fluctuating electron spin precession causing efficient relaxation in…

We studied the temperature stability of the endohedral fullerene molecule, N@C60, inside single-wall carbon nanotubes using electron spin resonance spectroscopy. We found that the nitrogen escapes at higher temperatures in the encapsulated…

The phase coherence relaxation times as long as $T_2\sim830-1030\pm20$ ns were measured for the [2Fe-2S] cluster in the intrinsic protein environment. This relaxation corresponds to a relatively long lasting coherence of the low-spin…

A theory of electron spin relaxation in semiconducting carbon nanotubes is developed based on the hyperfine interaction with disordered nuclei spins I=1/2 of $^{13}$C isotopes. It is shown that strong radial confinement of electrons…

We present a joint experimental and theoretical study of spin coherence properties of 39K, 85Rb, 87Rb, and 133Cs atoms trapped in a solid parahydrogen matrix. We use optical pumping to prepare the spin states of the implanted atoms and…

Using X-band pulsed electron spin resonance, we report the intrinsic spin-lattice ($T_1$) and phase coherence ($T_2$) relaxation times in molecular nanomagnets for the first time. In Cr$_7M$ heterometallic wheels, with $M$ = Ni and Mn,…

We perform an investigation on the spin relaxation for $n$-type ZnO (0001) quantum wells by numerically solving the kinetic spin Bloch equations with all the relevant scattering explicitly included. We show the temperature and electron…

A single electron floating on the surface of a condensed noble-gas liquid or solid can act as a spin qubit with ultralong coherence time, thanks to the extraordinary purity of such systems. Previous studies suggest that the electron spin…

While electron spins in silicon heterostructures make attractive qubits, little is known about the coherence of electrons at the Si/SiO2 interface. We report spin relaxation (T1) and coherence (T2) times for mobile electrons and natural…

We demonstrate that silicon carbide (SiC) with natural isotope abundance can preserve a coherent spin superposition in silicon vacancies over unexpectedly long time approaching 0.1 seconds. The spin-locked subspace with drastically reduced…

The time-window for processing electron spin information (spintronics) in solid-state quantum electronic devices is determined by the spin-lattice (T1) and spin-spin (T2) relaxation times of electrons. Minimising the effects of spin-orbit…

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…

We report a combined experimental and theoretical study of collision-induced dipolar relaxation in a cold spin-polarized gas of atomic nitrogen (N). We use buffer gas cooling to create trapped samples of 14N and 15N atoms with densities…

Utilizing time-resolved Kerr rotation techniques, we have investigated the spin dynamics of a high mobility, low density two dimensional electron gas in a GaAs/Al0:35Ga0:65As heterostructure in dependence on temperature from 1.5 K to 30 K.…

We explore the quantum dynamics of nuclear spin relaxation in cold collisions of $^1\Sigma^+$ molecules with structureless atoms in an external magnetic field. To this end, we develop a rigorous coupled-channel methodology, which accounts…

Pulsed electron paramagnetic resonance measurements of donor electron spins in natural phosphorus-doped silicon (Si:P) and isotopically-purified 28Si:P show a strongly temperature-dependent longitudinal relaxation time, T1, due to an Orbach…

The relaxation process of electron spin in systems of electrons interacting with piezoelectric deformation phonons that are mediated through spin-orbit interactions was interpreted from a microscopic point of view using the formula for the…
