We study the relaxation of a single electron spin in a circular quantum dot in a transition-metal dichalcogenide monolayer defined by electrostatic gating. Transition-metal dichalcogenides provide an interesting and promising arena for…

We investigate how spins relax in intrinsic graphene. The spin-orbit coupling arises from the band structure and is enhanced by ripples. The orbital motion is influenced by scattering centers and ripple-induced gauge fields. Spin relaxation…

First-principles calculations of the essential spin-orbit and spin relaxation properties of phosphorene are performed. Intrinsic spin-orbit coupling induces spin mixing with the probability of $b^2 \approx 10^{-4}$, exhibiting a large…

We report electronic control and measurement of an imbalance between spin-up and spin-down electrons in micron-scale open quantum dots. Spin injection and detection was achieved with quantum point contacts tuned to have spin-selective…

We measure the relaxation rate $W \equiv T_{1}^{-1}$ of a single electron spin in a quantum dot at magnetic fields from 7 T down to 1.75 T, much lower than previously measured. At 1.75 T we find that $T_{1}$ is 170 ms. We find good…

Disorder in spin-orbit (SO) coupling is an important feature of real low-dimensional electron structures. We study spin relaxation due to such a disorder as well as resulting abilities of spin manipulation. The spin relaxation reveals…

We study phonon-induced relaxation of quantum states of a particle (e.g., electron or proton) in a rigid double-well potential in a solid. Relaxation rate due to Raman two-phonon processes have been computed. We show that in a two-state…

We investigate heavy-hole spin relaxation and decoherence in quantum dots in perpendicular magnetic fields. We show that at low temperatures the spin decoherence time is two times longer than the spin relaxation time. We find that the spin…

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…

We present a first-principles investigation of spin-phonon relaxation in a molecular crystal of Co(II) single-ion magnets. Our study combines electronic structure calculations with machine-learning force fields and unravels the nature of…

We investigate theoretically the electron spin relaxation in single-electron nanowire-based semiconductor double quantum dots induced by confined phonons and find that the electron spin relaxation rate can be efficiently manipulated by…

We report on measurements of the spin relaxation time T1 of individual electron spins in the few electron regime of a Si/SiO2-based quantum dot (QD). Energy-spectroscopy of the QD has been performed using a charge sensing technique. The…

Spin relaxation in undoped quasi-spherical CdS quantum dots at zero magnetic fields is investigated using time- and polarization-resolved transient absorption measurements. Unlike in previous studies of these systems, the measured signals…

Spin properties of single electron states in laterally coupled quantum dots in the presence of a perpendicular magnetic field are studied by exact numerical diagonalization. Dresselhaus (linear and cubic) and Bychkov-Rashba spin-orbit…

The spin of a confined electron, when oriented originally in some direction, will lose memory of that orientation after some time. Physical mechanisms leading to this relaxation of spin memory typically involve either coupling of the…

Spin-orbit coupling is ubiquitous in quantum dot quantum computing architectures, and makes spin qubits susceptible to charge noise. We derive a Hamiltonian describing the effect of spin-orbit and noise on a single-spin qubit in a quantum…

An electron spin qubit in a silicon donor atom is a promising candidate for quantum information processing because of its long coherence time. To be sensed with a single-electron transistor, the donor atom is usually located near an…

We consider a mechanism of spin decay for an electron spin in a quantum dot due to coupling to a nearby quantum point contact (QPC) with and without an applied bias voltage. The coupling of spin to charge is induced by the spin-orbit…

We study the influence of spin-orbit coupling on the hole states in InAs/GaAs quantum dots grown on [001]- and [111]-oriented substrates belonging to symmetry point groups: C2v, C3v and D2d. We investigate the impact of various spin-orbit…

A realistic pseudopotential model is introduced to investigate the phonon-induced spin relaxation of conduction electrons in bulk silicon. We find a surprisingly subtle interference of the Elliott and Yafet processes affecting the spin…
