The following error occurs when executing the code to measure the dephasing time(T2). I would appreciate it if someone could give me a solution to this problem. Among the two functions below, widthoutDelay() performs normally, and the function withDelay() fails with the attached error.

Additionally, where can I find an example code to measure the time-dependent dephasing of the qubit? Some of the sample codes are from a few years ago, so there are a lot of contents that have been depreciated.

The issue with your withDelay function is its use of execute (which combines transpile and backend.run into a single function call). When you're calling execute, it's the equivalent of running transpile again without specifying a scheduling method.

You can fix the issue simply by changing execute to backend.run, so the revised withDelay function would look as follows:

def withDelay():  
    circuit = QuantumCircuit(q,c)
    circuit.h(q[0])
    circuit.delay(283, unit="us") # Delay of 200.79 microseconds   
    circuit.h(q[0])

    circuit.measure(q[0],c[0]) #Measuring the qubit

    transpiled_circ = transpile(circuit, backend, scheduling_method='alap')  

    nShots = 8192
    
    job = backend.run(transpiled_circ, shots=nShots)
    job_monitor(job)

    counts = job.result().get_counts()

    print("With delay: ",counts)
