Let [Formula: see text] be the ring [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] for any odd prime [Formula: see text] and positive integer [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we study constacyclic codes over the ring [Formula: see text]. We define a Gray map by a matrix and decompose a constacyclic code over the ring [Formula: see text] as the direct sum of constacyclic codes over [Formula: see text], we also characterize self-dual constacyclic codes over the ring [Formula: see text] and give necessary and sufficient conditions for constacyclic codes to be dual-containing. As an application, we give a method to construct quantum codes from dual-containing constacyclic codes over the ring [Formula: see text].
