Direct measurements of spin fluctuations are becoming the mainstream approach for studies of complex condensed matter, molecular, nuclear, and atomic systems. This review covers recent progress in the field of optical Spin Noise…
We consider fluctuations of the electronic spin due to coupling to nuclear spin. Noise spectroscopy of an electronic spin can be revealed in the Scanning Tunnelling Microscope (STM). We argue that the noise spectroscopy of electronic spin…
Sizable hyperpolarisation, i.e. an imbalance of the occupation numbers of nuclear spins in a sample deviating from thermal equilibrium, is needed in various fields of science. For example, hyperpolarised tracers are utilised in magnetic…
Resonant laser scattering along with photon correlation measurements have established the atom-like character of quantum dots. Here, we present measurements which challenge this identification for a wide range of experimental parameters:…
One-dimensional quantum wires are considered as prospective elements for spin transport and manipulation in spintronics. We study spin dynamics in semiconductor GaAs-like nanowires with disorder and spin-orbit interaction by using a…
We demonstrate methods to locally control the spin rotation of moving electrons in a GaAs channel. The Larmor frequency of optically-injected spins is modulated when the spins are dragged through a region of spin-polarized nuclei created at…
The spin fluctuations of electron and hole doped self-assembled quantum dot ensembles are measured optically in the low-intensity limit of a probe laser in absence and presence of longitudinal or transverse static magnetic fields. The…
We develop a theoretical description of transport through quantum dots connected to reservoirs via spin-polarized ballistic contacts. Rate equations account for spin accumulation inside the dot, electron-electron interactions, and…
Nuclear spin coherence and relaxation dynamics of all constituent isotopes of an n-doped CdTe/(Cd,Mg)Te quantum well structure are studied employing optically detected nuclear magnetic resonance. Using time-resolved pump-probe Faraday…
Efficient hyperpolarisation of nuclear spins via optically active defect centers, such as the nitrogen vacancy (NV) center in diamond, has great potential for enhancing NMR based quantum information processing and nanoscale magnetic…
Low thermal polarization of nuclear spins is a primary sensitivity limitation for nuclear magnetic resonance. Here we demonstrate optically pumped (microwave-free) nuclear spin polarization of $^{13}\mathrm{C}$ and $^{15}\mathrm{N}$ in…
The shot noise of spin polarized electrons is shown to be generically dependent upon spin-flip processes. Such a situation represents perhaps the simplest instance where the two-particle character of current fluctuations out of equilibrium…
Nuclear spin hyperpolarization provides a promising route to overcome the challenges imposed by the limited sensitivity of nuclear magnetic resonance. Here we demonstrate that dissolution of spin-polarized pentacene-doped naphthalene…
Mechanical resonators operating in the high-frequency regime have become a versatile platform for fundamental and applied quantum research. Their exceptional properties, such as low mass and high quality factor, make them also very…
A wide variety of nuclear magnetic resonance experiments rely on the prediction and analysis of relaxation processes. Recently, innovative approaches have been introduced where the sample travels through a broad range of magnetic fields in…
We report on experiments that quantify the role of a central electronic spin as a relaxation source for nuclear spins in its nanoscale environment. Our strategy exploits hyperpolarization injection from the electron as a means to…
Understanding the joint dynamics of electron and nuclear spins is central to core concepts in solid-state magnetic resonance - such as spin-lattice relaxation and dynamic nuclear polarization - but a generalization that capitalizes on…
We study theoretically the electron spin noise in quantum dots under non-equilibrium conditions caused by the pumping by a train of circularly polarized optical pulses. In such a situation, the nuclear spins are known to adjust in such a…
In III-V semiconductors it was shown theoretically that under optical cooling the nuclear spin polaron bound to neutral donors would form below some critical nuclear spin temperature TC [I. A. Merkulov, Phys. Solid State 40, 930 (1998)].…
We propose a method for the estimation of the initial polarization of spinful nuclei of the 13 C isotope in diamond via a measurement of the evolution of the coherence of an NV center spin qubit. Existing polarization measurement methods…
