Observation of Optically Stimulated Depletion of Carbon Acceptor Bound Excitons in GaAs

Abstract

We observe stimulated emission of acceptor bound excitons into an excited acceptor state. This technique is used to estimate spin coherence parameters for acceptors and may pave a path toward single acceptor isolation.

Enhancement of Spin Coherence in Microdisk Lasers

We examine the modification of electron spin dynamics by stimulated emission in optically-pumped GaAs microdisk lasers and observe an enhancement of the spin coherence when the optical excitation resonates with a high-Q lasing mode.

Electromagnetically Induced Transparency via Exciton Correlations

Hailin Wang, Mark C. Phillips

Electromagnetically induced transparency resulting from exciton spin coherence is demonstrated in transient optical response in GaAs quantum wells. The spin coherence is induced via correlations between excitons with opposite spins, including correlations associated with bound and unbound biexcitons.

Optically Active Single Hole Spin in ZnSe

Amirehsan Alizadehherfati, Yuxi Jiang, Kelsey J. Mirrielees +7 more

Semiconductor hole spins offer a pathway to extended coherence times by decoupling from nuclear magnetic noise, while their spin-orbit coupling enables fast all-electrical control. In ZnSe, however, realizing this potential has been limited by p-doping challenges. Here, we circumvent this limit by optically activating acceptors within the ZnSe quantum well. We isolate a single-hole spin bound to a shallow acceptor, confirmed by antibunching and accessed via the fast (244 ps) radiative recombination of a bound exciton. Magnetic and Raman spectroscopy of the ground state reveal an effective hole g-factor of 0.7 and an optical resonance linewidth of 26.7 GHz. Complementary first-principles simulations, together with the experimental results, provide evidence that points toward nitrogen as the most likely acceptor impurity. These results introduce a promising new platform for optically active spin qubits and single-photon sources in ZnSe.

Spin Coherence and Electromagnetically Induced Transparency via Exciton Correlations

Mark C. Phillips, Hailin Wang

We report experimental studies on exciton spin coherence induced via Coulomb correlations between excitons with opposite spins, including correlations associated with unbound as well as bound exciton pairs. Electromagnetically induced transparency resulting from the spin coherence is demonstrated in the transient optical response in GaAs quantum wells.
