We study the transport of spin polarized electrons in n-GaAs using spatially resolved continuous wave Faraday rotation. From the measured steady state distribution, we determine spin relaxation times under drift conditions and, in the…
We have characterized CdS/CdSe/CdS quantum-dot quantum wells using time-resolved Faraday rotation (TRFR). The spin dynamics show that the electron g-factor varies as a function of quantum well width and the transverse spin lifetime of…
We theoretically investigate the D'yakonov-Perel' spin relaxation properties in diffusive wurtzite semiconductor nanowires and their impact on the quantum correction to the conductivity. Although the lifetime of the long-lived spin states…
We use time-resolved Faraday rotation to measure coherent spin dynamics in colloidal CdSe quantum dots charged in an electrochemical cell at room temperature. Filling of the 1Se electron level is demonstrated by the bleaching of the…
The recombination and spin dynamics of excitons in colloidal CdTe nanocrystals (NCs) are studied by time-resolved photoluminescence in high magnetic fields up to 15 T and at cryogenic temperatures. The recombination decay shows a…
Carrier spins in semiconductor nanocrystals are promising candidates for quantum information processing. Using a combination of time-resolved Faraday rotation and photoluminescence spectroscopies, we demonstrate optical spin polarization…
Time resolved measurements of magnetization in n-GaAs have revealed a rich array of spin decoherence processes, and have shown that fairly long lifetimes (\sim 100 ns) can be achieved under certain circumstances. In time-resolved Faraday…
A theory of electron spin relaxation in semiconducting carbon nanotubes is developed based on the hyperfine interaction with disordered nuclei spins I=1/2 of $^{13}$C isotopes. It is shown that strong radial confinement of electrons…

We report spin-polarized transient absorption for colloidal CdSe nanoplatelets as functions of thickness (2 to 6 monolayer thickness) and core/shell motif. Using electro-optical modulation of co- and cross-polarization pump-probe…
We experimentally demonstrate ultralong spin lifetimes of electrons in the one-dimensional (1D) quantum limit of semiconductor nanowires. Optically probing single wires of different diameters reveals an increase in the spin relaxation time…

The long standing problem of inexplicably short spin relaxation in carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is examined. The curvature-mediated spin-orbital interaction is shown to induce fluctuating electron spin precession causing efficient relaxation in…
Perovskite nanocrystals are a convenient model system for optical spin orientation and manipulation. However, its real potential might be underestimated due to the incomplete knowledge on spin relaxation times, which are obscured by the…
Electron spin relaxation induced by phonon-mediated s-d exchange interaction in a II-VI diluted magnetic semiconductor quantum dot is investigated theoretically. The electron-acoustic phonon interaction due to piezoelectric coupling and…
We develop an extended pump-probe Faraday rotation technique to study the submicrosecond electron spin dynamics with picosecond time resolution in a wide range of magnetic fields. The electron spin dephasing time $T_2^*$ and the…
Magnetic Resonance Force Microscopy can enable nanoscale imaging of spin lifetime. We report temperature dependent measurements of the spin correlation time $\tau_m$ of the statistical fluctuations of the spin polarization---the spin…
