量子点中的热电子自旋翻转

Thermal electron spin flip in quantum dots

Moritz Fuchs, Felix Krauß, Daniel Hetterich, Björn Trauzettel

摘要:

我们研究了半导体量子点中电子自旋的热致自旋翻转。这种有趣的效应源于塞曼耦合到外部磁场和超精细相互作用与周围的核自旋之间的有趣的相互作用。通过考虑一个极小模型,我们解释了驱动这种自旋翻转的主要机制,并分析了其依赖于外部磁场的强度,核自旋的数量和电子和核塞曼能量的比例,分别。最后,我们表明,这个极小模型可以应用到实验相关的量子点在III-V异质结构,在那里我们明确地预测自旋翻转发生的温度。

英文摘要:

We study a thermally induced spin flip of an electron spin located in a semiconductor quantum dot. This interesting effect arises from an intriguing interplay between the Zeeman coupling to an external magnetic field and the hyperfine interaction with the surrounding nuclear spins. By considering a minimal model, we explain the main mechanism driving this spin flip and analyze its dependence on the strength of the external magnetic field, the number of nuclear spins and the ratio of the electron and nuclear Zeeman energies, respectively. Finally we show, that this minimal model can be applied to experimentally relevant QDs in III-V heterostructures, where we explicitly predict the temperature at which the spin flip occurs.
