Abstract
The processes of spin diffusion and relaxation are studied theoretically and numerically for quantum computation applications. Two possible realizations of a spin quantum computer (SQC) are analyzed: (i) a boundary spin chain in a 2D spin array and (ii) an isolated spin chain. In both cases, spin diffusion and relaxation are caused by a fast relaxing spin located outside the SQC. We have shown that in both cases the relaxation can be suppressed by an external non-uniform magnetic field. In the second case, our computer simulations have revealed various types of relaxation processes including the excitation of a random distribution of magnetic moments and the formation of stationary and moving domain walls. The region of optimal parameters for suppression of rapid spin relaxation is discussed.
