Abstract
Any quantum system during its evolution gets entangled with the surrounding environment causing decoherence1,2, which will ultimately limit the performance of a quantum computer3. The quest for large scale integrability and flexibility in the design indicates solid state nanodevices as the natural candidates for the implementation of quantum computers, though, due to the presence of many kinds of low energy excitations in the environment, decoherence might represent a serious limitation.
