Spin dynamics of a confined electron interacting with magnetic or nuclear spins: A semiclassical approach

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

A physically transparent and mathematically simple semiclassical model is employed to examine dynamics in the central-spin problem. The results reproduce a number of previous findings obtained by various quantum approaches and, at the same time, provide information on the electron spin dynamics and Berry's phase effects over a wider range of experimentally relevant parameters than available previously. This development is relevant to dynamics of bound magnetic polarons and spin dephasing of an electron trapped by an impurity or a quantum dot, and coupled by a contact interaction to neighboring localized magnetic impurities or nuclear spins. Furthermore, it substantiates the applicability of semiclassical models to simulate dynamic properties of spintronic nanostructures with a mesoscopic number of spins.
