description

Bulk-phonon mechanisms of decoherence of an exciton confined in a quantum dot (QD) are considered in order to establish time limitations for the coherent control of the exciton with relevance to its application in quantum information processing. These are the formation and decay of the excitonic polaron. The estimations of characteristic dephasing times for the InAs/GaAs QD are discussed.
