Spin relaxation in Quantum Dots induced by Nyquist Noise — •Florian Marquardt1 and Veniamin A. Abalmassov2 — 1Department of Physics, Yale University, New Haven 06520, USA — 2Institute of Semiconductor Physics SB RAS and Novosibirsk State University, 630090 Novosibirsk, Russia
We analyze the spin relaxation rate T1−1 for an electron inside
a quantum dot that is subject to the Nyquist voltage fluctuations of
the confining metallic gates. In combination with spin-orbit coupling,
this leads to a relaxation rate that depends on the direction of the
magnetic field and the impedance matrix of the gate circuit, providing
possibilities for distinguishing this mechanism from other
sources of relaxation.
