We experimentally and theoretically investigate dephasing of zero dimensional microcavity polaritons in electrically tunable single dot photonic crystal nanocavities. Such devices allow us to alter the dot-cavity detuning in-situ and to…
We present a theoretical model that allows us to describe the polariton dynamics in a semiconductor microcavity at large densities, for the case of non-resonant excitation. Exciton-polariton scattering from a thermalized exciton reservoir…
We show that the electron spin polarization generated by an electrical current may have its direction controlled and magnitude amplified by periodic optical excitation. The electrical and optical spin control methods were combined and…
Theory of spin noise in low dimensional systems and bulk semiconductors is reviewed. Spin noise is usually detected by optical means, continuously measuring the rotation angle of the polarization plane of the probe beam passing through the…
We study the optically-induced coupling between spins mediated by polaritons in a planar micro-cavity. In the strong coupling regime, the vacuum Rabi splitting introduces anisotropies in the spin coupling. Moreover, due to their photon-like…
We demonstrate theoretically that spin dynamics of electrons injected into a GaAs semiconductor structure through a Schottky barrier possesses strong non-equilibrium features. Electrons injected are redistributed quickly among several…
A new method for local dynamic nuclear polarization is demonstrated in a GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure at the Landau level filling factor $\nu=3$. Using a narrow channel sample, where the width varies stepwise along the electron flow, we find…
We study theoretically the transport of linearly polarized exciton-polaritons in a quasi one-dimensional microcavity channel separating two polariton condensates generated by optical pumping. The direction and value of mass and spin…
We investigate the statistics of microcavity polariton Bose-Einstein condensation by measuring photoluminescence dynamics from a GaAs microcavity excited by single laser excitation pulses. We directly observe fluctuations (jitter) of the…
We observe millisecond spin-flip relaxation times of donor-bound electrons in high-purity n-GaAs . This is three orders of magnitude larger than previously reported lifetimes in n-GaAs . Spin-flip times are measured as a function of…
Using a novel analysis technique, the gluon polarisation in the nucleon is re-evaluated using the longitudinal double-spin asymmetry measured in the cross section of semi-inclusive single-hadron muoproduction with photon virtuality…
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…
Within the framework of the mean-field approximation, a coherently excited two-dimensional system of weakly repulsive bosons is predicted to show a giant loop scattering when the rotational symmetry is reduced. The considered process…
Evolution of the z-component of a single spin in the finite cyclic XY spin 1/2 chain is studied. Initially one selected spin is polarized while other spins are completely unpolarized and uncorrelated. Polarization of the selected spin as a…
We measured the dynamics of polariton parametric stimulated scattering in semiconductor microcavities, by time-resolving the amplified signal with 250 fs resolution. Our experiments demonstrate that the stimulation process is considerably…
We resonantly inject polaritons into a microcavity and track them in time and space as they feel a force due to the cavity gradient. This is an example of "slow reflection," as the polaritons, which can be viewed as renormalized photons,…
We use phase-resolved transient grating spectroscopy to measure the propagation of spin helices in a high mobility $n$-GaAs/AlGaAs quantum well with an applied in-plane electric field. At relatively low fields helical modes crossover from…
We find that photoexcited electrons in an n-GaAs epilayer rapidly (< 50 ps) spin-polarize due to the proximity of an epitaxial ferromagnetic metal. Comparison between MnAs/GaAs and Fe/GaAs structures reveals that this coherent spin…
Using electrical detection of a strongly coupled spin-photon system comprised of a microwave cavity mode and two magnetic samples, we demonstrate the long distance manipulation of spin currents. This distant control is not limited by the…
We present a detailed experimental and theoretical analysis of the optical orientation of electron spins in GaAs/AlAs quantum wells. Using time and polarization resolved photoluminescence excitation spectroscopy, the initial degree of…
