Charge decoherence in laterally coupled quantum dots due to electron-phonon interactions

Vasileios N. Stavrou, Xuedong Hu

We investigate electron charge decoherence in a laterally coupled single-electron semiconductor double quantum dot through electron-phonon interaction. We analytically and numerically evaluate the relaxation and dephasing rates due to electron coupling to both acoustic and optical phonons, and explore the system parameter space in terms of interdot distance, strength of single-dot confinement, and interdot coupling strength. Our numerical results show that the electron scattering rates are strongly dependent on the strength of the electron confinement and the size of the system. In addition, although the most dominant factor that determines the charge decoherence rate is the energy splitting between the charge qubit states, the details of the double dot configuration are also very important.

Angle-dependent decoherence of charge qubits in free-standing slabs

Ying-Yen Liao, Yueh-Nan Chen, Sheng‐Rui Jian

We investigate the decoherence of a charge qubit in a double quantum dot which is formed in a free-standing semiconductor slab. The dots are spatially arranged to align along a particular direction. Confined phonons in the slab have a remarkable influence on the dynamics of a qubit system. We show that the decoherence of such a qubit strongly depends on the positions of the dots. By varying the tunnel coupling, the decoherence differs significantly in laterally and vertically coupled quantum dots. A robust qubit is further achieved due to suppression of electron-phonon coupling. Moreover, the coherent evolution of the system is analyzed by modulating the interdot direction.

Two-spin dephasing by electron-phonon interaction in semiconductor double quantum dots

Xuedong Hu

We study electron-phonon interaction induced decoherence between two-electron singlet and triplet states in a semiconductor double quantum dot using a spin-boson model. We investigate the onset and time evolution of this dephasing, and study its dependence on quantum dot parameters such as dot size and double dot separations, as well as the host materials (GaAs and Si). At the short time limit, electron-phonon interaction only causes an incomplete initial Gaussian decay of the off-diagonal density matrix element in the singlet-triplet Hilbert space; a complete long-time exponential decay due to phonon relaxation would eventually dominate over two-spin decoherence. We analyze two-spin decoherence in both symmetric and biased double quantum dots, identifying their difference in electron-phonon coupling and the relevant consequences.
