Several different mechanisms which originate from spin-orbit coupling are shown to be responsible for such processes. It is shown that spin-lattice relaxation for the electron localized in a quantum dot is much less effective than for the free electron. The spin-flip rates due to several other mechanisms not related to the spin-orbit interaction are also estimated.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2001-07-02T18:51:20.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "semiconductor quantum dots", "spin-flip transitions", "zeeman sublevels", "gaas electron quantum dots", "spin-orbit interaction" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
