We investigate the dynamic nuclear polarization from the hyperfine interaction between nonequilibrium electronic spins and nuclear spins coupled to them in semiconductor nanostructures. We derive the time and position dependence of the…
We report on the influence of hyperfine interaction on the optical orientation of singly charged excitons X+ and X- in self-assembled InAs/GaAs quantum dots. All measurements were carried out on individual quantum dots studied by…
We show that the spin-lattice relaxation in n-type insulating GaAs is dramatically accelerated at low magnetic fields. The origin of this effect, that cannot be explained in terms of well-known diffusion-limited hyperfine relaxation, is…
Measurements and modeling of electron spin transport and dynamics are used to characterize hyperfine interactions in Fe/GaAs devices with $n$-GaAs channels. Ga and As nuclei are polarized by electrically injected electron spins, and the…
We use time-resolved detection of the Hanle effect and polarized photoluminescence with dark intervals to investigate the buildup and decay of the spin polarization of nuclei interacting with donor-bound electrons in $n$-doped GaAs. Strong…
We discuss the implications of a small indium content (3%) in a GaAs epilayer on the electron- and nuclear-spin relaxation due to enhanced quadrupolar effects induced by the strain. Using the weakly perturbative spin-noise spectroscopy, we…
We study light-induced nuclear spin-polarization in a thin film of Ga1-xMnxAs (x 0.04), a dilute ferromagnetic semiconductor, grown on a GaAs substrate. High-field inductively-detected Ga-71 NMR was performed with samples immersed in…
Irradiating a semiconductor with circularly polarized light creates spin-polarized charge carriers. If the material contains atoms with non-zero nuclear spin, they interact with the electron spins via the hyperfine coupling. Here, we…
Light excitation of a semiconductor, known to dynamically-polarize the nuclear spins by hyperfine contact interaction with the photoelectrons, also generates an intrinsic nuclear depolarization mechanism. This novel relaxation process…
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…
We report on the dynamic nuclear polarization of a single charge-tunable self-assembled InAs/GaAs quantum dot in a longitudinal magnetic field of $\sim$0.2T. The hyperfine interaction between the optically oriented electron and nuclei spins…
The dynamic polarization of nuclear spins by photoexcited electrons is studied in a high quality GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well. We find a surprisingly high efficiency of the spin transfer from the electrons to the nuclei as reflected by a…
The hyperfine field from dynamically polarized nuclei in n-GaAs is very spatially inhomogeneous, as the nu- clear polarization process is most efficient near the randomly-distributed donors. Electrons with polarized spins traversing the…
Similar to nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond and impurity atoms in silicon, interstitial gallium deep paramagnetic centers in GaAsN have been proven to have useful characteristics for the development of spintronic devices. Among other…
We report on a picosecond-fast optical removal of spin polarization from a self-confined photo-carrier system at an undoped GaAs/AlGaAs interface possessing superior long-range and high-speed spin transport properties. We employed a…
Spin-lattice relaxation of the nuclear spin system in p-type GaAs is studied using a three-stage experimental protocol including optical pumping and measuring the difference of the nuclear spin polarization before and after a dark interval…
Nuclear spin relaxation is studied in n-GaAs thick layers and microcavity samples with different electron densities. We reveal that both in metallic samples where electrons are free and mobile, and in insulating samples, where electrons are…
The interplay of optical driving and hyperfine interaction between an electron confined in a quantum dot and its surrounding nuclear spin environment produces a range of interesting physics such as mode-locking. In this work, we go beyond…
We study experimentally the dependence of dynamic nuclear spin polarization on the power of non-resonant optical excitation in two types of individual neutral semiconductor quantum dots: InGaAs/GaAs and GaAs/AlGaAs. We show that the…
We study the optically pumped nuclear spin polarization in a single GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well in the quantum Hall system. We apply resistive detection via the contact hyperfine interaction, which provides high sensitivity and selectivity, to…
