Extremely long electron spin coherence induced by a trion transition in ZnSe/BeTe type-II quantum wells

The spin coherence of photoexcited electrons in non‐doped ZnSe/BeTe type‐II quantum wells was investigated by a time‐resolved Kerr rotation (TRKR) technique using resonant excitation of either excitons or negatively charged excitons (trions) in magnetic fields at 1.4 K. The TRKR signal arising from...

Zusammenfassung:The spin coherence of photoexcited electrons in non‐doped ZnSe/BeTe type‐II quantum wells was investigated by a time‐resolved Kerr rotation (TRKR) technique using resonant excitation of either excitons or negatively charged excitons (trions) in magnetic fields at 1.4 K. The TRKR signal arising from the Lamor precession of photo‐excited electron spins in ZnSe layers was observed and enhanced at the trion resonance, where the spin relaxation time reached up to several nanoseconds.
