Abstract
Spin noise spectroscopy has become a widespread technique to extract information on spin dynamics in atomic and solid-state systems, in a potentially non-invasive way, through the optical probing of spin fluctuations. Here we experimentally demonstrate a new approach in spin noise spectroscopy, based on the detection of single photons. Due to the large spin-dependent polarization rotations provided by a deterministically-coupled quantum dot-micropillar device, giant spin noise signals induced by a single-hole spin are extracted in the form of photon-photon cross-correlations. Ultimately, such a technique can be extended to an ultrafast regime probing mechanisms down to few tens of picoseconds.
