Abstract

We describe, from a theoretical point of view, phonon-induced dephasing and relaxation processes in double quantum dots, the specific features of the spontaneous emission in these systems, and the interplay of these two classes of physical processes. First, we discuss the phonon-assisted transfer of electron, hole and exciton occupation in coupled dots, the dephasing of spatially delocalized superpositions, and the phonon-induced decay of entanglement. Second, we study the signatures of collective emission in the linear absorption and the four-wave mixing optical response of these systems, as well as in time-resolved luminescence, where collective effects are manifested by long-living tails in the emission due to the vacuum-induced coherence effect. Finally, we analyze the interplay of phonon-related processes and spontaneous emission. We show that occupation transfer between bright and dark states in the ground state doublet of a double-dot structure can lead to a temperature dependence of the spontaneous emission rate, which may result in a non-monotonic temperature dependence of the luminescence decay rate.
