Spin–orbit-induced hole spin relaxation in InAs and GaAs quantum dots
We study the effect of valence band spin–orbit interactions (SOI) on the acoustic phonon-assisted spin relaxation of holes confined in quantum dots (QDs). Heavy hole–light hole (hh–lh) mixing and all the spin–orbit terms arising from zinc-blende bulk inversion asymmetry (BIA) are considered on equal...
