## Abstract

In view of the ultrashort spatial and temporal scales involved, carrier capture processes in nanostructures are genuine quantum phenomena. To describe such processes, methods with different levels of approximations have been developed. By properly tailoring the Lindblad-based nonlinear single-particle density matrix equation provided by an alternative Markov approach, in this work we present a Lindblad superoperator to describe how the phonon-induced carrier capture affects the spatio-temporal quantum dynamics of a flying wave packet impinging on a quantum dot. We compare the results with non-Markovian quantum kinetics calculations and discuss the advantages and drawbacks of the two approaches.

## Recorded benchmark results

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.
