Gate control of low-temperature spin dynamics in two-dimensional hole systems
2009
We have investigated spin and carrier dynamics of resident holes in high-mobility two-dimensional hole systems in $\text{GaAs}/{\text{Al}}_{0.3}{\text{Ga}}_{0.7}\text{As}$ single-quantum wells at temperatures down to 400 mK. Time-resolved Faraday and Kerr rotation as well as time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy are utilized in our study. We observe long-lived hole-spin dynamics that are strongly temperature dependent, indicating that in-plane localization is crucial for hole-spin coherence. By applying a gate voltage, we are able to tune the observed hole $g$ factor by more than 50%. Calculations of the hole $g$ tensor as a function of the applied bias show excellent agreement with our experimental findings.
