Electron spins in an InGaAs semiconductor quantum well are used as a magnetometer of magnetic stray-fields from patterned Fe stripes. Using time-resolved Faraday rotation, the coherent precession of quantum-well spins in the inhomogeneous…
The magnetic stray field from Fe gates is used to modify the spin precession frequency of InGaAs/GaAs quantum-well electrons in an external magnetic field. By using an etching process to position the gates directly in the plane of the…
Electrical control and detection of spin precession are experimentally demonstrated by using spin-resolved edge states in the integer quantum Hall regime. Spin precession is triggered at a corner of a biased metal gate, where electron…
We use time-resolved Kerr rotation to demonstrate the optical and electronic tuning of both the electronic and local moment (Mn) spin dynamics in electrically gated parabolic quantum wells derived from II-VI diluted magnetic semiconductors.…
Using the recently reported mode locking effect we demonstrate a highly robust control of electron spin coherence in an ensemble of (In,Ga)As quantum dots during the single spin coherence time. The spin precession in a transverse magnetic…
We report on spatially resolved measurements of the spin-orbit effective magnetic field in a GaAs/InGaAs quantum-well. Biased gate electrodes lead to an electric-field distribution in which the quantum-well electrons move according to the…
We study the tunability of the spin-orbit interaction in a two-dimensional electron gas with a front and a back gate electrode by monitoring the spin precession frequency of drifting electrons using time-resolved Kerr rotation. The Rashba…
The electron spin resonance (ESR) of two-dimensional electrons is investigated in a gated GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure. We found that the ESR resonance frequency can be turned by means of a gate voltage. The front and back gates of the…
Space- and time-resolved measurements of spin drift and diffusion are performed on a GaAs-hosted two-dimensional electron gas. For spins where forward drift is compensated by backward diffusion, we find a precession frequency in absence of…
The electron spin dynamics in (111)-oriented GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wells is studied by timeresolved photoluminescence spectroscopy. By applying an external field of 50 kV/cm a two-order of magnitude increase of the spin relaxation time can be…
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…
Electron spin dynamics is investigated in n-i-n GaAs/AlGaAs coupled quantum wells. The electron spin dephasing time is measured as a function of an external electrical bias under resonant excitation of the 1sHH intrawell exciton using a…
The inverse Faraday effect induced in magnetic films by ultrashort laser pulses allows excitation and control of spins at GHz and sub-THz frequencies. Frequency of the excited magnetization precession is easily tunable by the external…
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 show how the quantum Hall effect in an inverted-gap semiconductor (with electron- and hole-like states at the conduction- and valence-band edges interchanged) can be used to inject, precess, and detect the electron spin along a…
Spin dynamics of optically excited electrons confined in asymmetric coupled quantum wells are investigated through time resolved Faraday rotation experiments. The inter-well coupling is shown to depend on applied electric field and barrier…
Time- and spatially-resolved Faraday rotation spectroscopy is used to measure the magnitude and direction of the momentum-dependent spin splitting in strained InGaAs epilayers. The epilayers are lattice-matched to the GaAs substrate and…
We use subpicosecond laser pulses to generate and monitor in real time collective oscillations of electrons in a modulation-doped GaAs quantum well. The observed frequencies match those of intersubband spin- and charge-density excitations.…
We measure the frequency spectra of random spin fluctuations, or "spin noise", in ensembles of (In,Ga)As/GaAs quantum dots (QDs) at low temperatures. We employ a spin noise spectrometer based on a sensitive optical Faraday rotation…
Electron spin coherence has been generated optically in n-type modulation doped (In,Ga)As/GaAs quantum dots (QDs) which contain on average a single electron per dot. The coherence arises from resonant excitation of the QDs by…
