Phonon-assisted relaxation between triplet and singlet states in a self-assembled double quantum dot

Abstract We study theoretically phonon-induced spin dynamics of two electrons confined in a self-assembled double quantum dot. We calculate the transition rates and time evolution of occupations for the spin-triplet and spin-singlet states. We characterize the relative importance of various relaxati...
