- Authors: Lin Wang, Guido Burkard
- Abstract summary: We investigate the valley relaxation due to intervalley coupling in a single-electron bilayer graphene quantum dot.
The dominant valley relaxation channel in the high-field regime is the electron-phonon coupling via the deformation potential.
Interlayer hopping $gamma_3$ opens a valley relaxation channel for electric charge noise for rotationally symmetric quantum dots in bilayer graphene.

- Abstract: We investigate the valley relaxation due to intervalley coupling in a
single-electron bilayer graphene quantum dot. The valley relaxation is assisted
by both the emission of acoustic phonons via the deformation potential and
bond-length change mechanisms and $1/f$ charge noise. In the perpendicular
magnetic-field dependence of the valley relaxation time $T_1$, we predict a
monotonic decrease of $T_1$ at higher fields due to electron-phonon coupling,
which is in good agreement with recent experiments by Banszerus et al. We find
that the dominant valley relaxation channel in the high-field regime is the
electron-phonon coupling via the deformation potential. At lower fields, we
predict that a peak in $T_1$ can arise from the competition between $1/f$
charge noise and electron-phonon scattering due to bond-length change. We also
find that the interlayer hopping $\gamma_3$ opens a valley relaxation channel
for electric charge noise for rotationally symmetric quantum dots in bilayer
graphene.

A quantum simulation of magnetism in trapped-ion systems makes use of the crystal vibrations to mediate pairwise interactions between spins.
These interactions can be accounted for by a long-wavelength relativistic theory, where the phonons are described by a coarse-grained Klein-Gordon field.
We show that thermal effects, which can be controlled by laser cooling, can unveil this flow through the appearance of thermal masses in interacting QFTs.
