Negative Electron Affinity (NEA) activated GaAs photocathodes are the most popular option for generating a high current (> 1 mA) spin-polarized electron beam. Despite its popularity, a short operational lifetime is the main drawback of this…

III-V semiconductor nanolight sources with deep-subwavelength dimensions ($<<$1 ${\mu}$m) are essential for miniaturized photonic devices such as nanoLEDs and nanolasers. However, these nanoscale emitters suffer from substantial…
Spin dephasing via the spin-orbit interaction (SOI) is a major mechanism limiting the electron spin lifetime in III-V zincblende quantum wells. The dephasing can be suppressed in GaAs(111) quantum wells by applying an electric field. The…
Optically addressable spins are actively investigated in quantum communication, processing and sensing. Optical and spin coherence lifetimes, which determine quantum operation fidelity and storage time, are often limited by spin-spin…
