The decoherence of the parabolic linear bound potential quantum dot qubit

Abstract

On the condition of electric–LO phonon strong coupling in parabolic quantum dot, we obtain the eigenenergies of the ground state and the first-excited state, the eigenfuctions of the ground state and the first-excited state by using variational method of Pekar type. This system in quantum dot may be employed as a two-level quantum system—qubit. The phonon spontaneous emission causes the decoherence of the qubit. The relations between the decoherence time with the coupling strength, the confinement length, the coefficient dispersion are discussed.
