Absorption of circularly polarized light in semiconductors is known to result in optical orientation of electron and hole spins. It has been shown here that in semiconductor quantum well structures spin orientation of carriers can be…
We theoretically investigate the properties of holes in a Si$_{x}$Ge$_{1-x}$/Ge/ Si$_{x}$Ge$_{1-x}$ quantum well in a perpendicular magnetic field that make them advantageous as qubits, including a large ($>$100~meV) intrinsic splitting…
We experimentally investigate the dynamics of a persistent spin helix in etched GaAs wire structures of 2 to 80 um width. Using magneto-optical Kerr rotation with high spatial resolution, we determine the lifetime of the spin helix. A few…
There has been an intense search in recent years for long-lived spin-polarized carriers for spintronic and quantum-computing devices. Here we report that spin polarized quasi-particles in superconducting aluminum layers have surprisingly…
We study the relationship between the circular polarization of photoluminescence and the magnetic field-induced spin-polarization of the recombining charge carriers in bulk Si and Ge/Si quantum dots. First, we quantitatively compare…
Understanding the spin dynamics in semiconductor heterostructures is highly important for future semiconductor spintronic devices. In high-mobility two-dimensional electron systems (2DES), the spin lifetime strongly depends on the initial…
Using long-distance lateral devices, spin transport near the interface of Si and its native oxide (SiO2) is studied by spin-valve measurements in an in-plane magnetic field and spin precession measurements in a perpendicular magnetic field…
Finding stimuli capable of driving an imbalance of spin-polarised electrons within a solid is the central challenge in the development of spintronic devices. However, without the aid of magnetism, routes towards this goal are highly…
We have shown that electron spin density can be generated by a dc current flowing across a $pn$ junction with an embedded asymmetric quantum well. Spin polarization is created in the quantum well by radiative electron-hole recombination…
We use a neutron spin-echo method with $\mu$eV resolution to determine the lifetimes of spin waves in the prototypical antiferromagnet MnF$_2$ over the entire Brillouin zone. A theory based on the interaction of magnons with longitudinal…
Coherent electron spin dynamics in 10-nm-wide InGaAs/InAlAs quantum wells is studied from 10 K to room temperature using time-resolved Kerr rotation. The spin lifetime exceeds 1 ns at 10 K and decreases with temperature. By varying the…
Spin-active color centers in solids show good performance for quantum technologies. Several transition-metal defects in SiC offer compatibility with telecom and semiconductor industries. However, whether their strong spin-orbit coupling…
