Spin decoherence in n-type GaAs: the effectiveness of the third-body rejection method for electron-electron scattering

Abstract

We study the spin decoherence in n-type bulk GaAs for moderate electronic densities at room temperature using Ensemble Monte Carlo method. We demonstrate that the third-body rejection method devised by Ridley can be successfully adapted to Ensemble Monte Carlo algorithm, and used to tackle the problem of the electron-electron contribution to spin decoherence.
