A precession mechanism of spin relaxation of conduction electrons in a square quantum well is analyzed. The dependence of the spin relaxation time on the width of a quantum well and the height of its barriers is calculated under the assumption that the electron-electron collisions dominate over other processes of carrier scattering.
