Hole-phonon interactions in quantum dots: Effects of phonon confinement and encapsulation materials on spin-orbit qubits

Hole-phonon interactions in quantum dots: Effects of phonon confinement and encapsulation materials on spin-orbit qubits

Spin-phonon interactions are one of the mechanisms limiting the lifetime of spin qubits made in semiconductor quantum dots. At variance with other mechanisms such as charge noise, phonons are intrinsic to the device and can hardly be mitigated. They set, therefore, fundamental limits to the relaxation time of the qubits. …
