Electron spin relaxation due to phonon modulation of the Rashba interaction in quantum dots

In this work we calculate the spin-flip transition rates, considering the phonon modulation of the spin-orbit interaction. For this purpose will use the spin-phonon interaction Hamiltonian proposed by Pavlov and Firsov. We compare the contributions of the electron-phonon deformation potential (DP) a...
