The canonical example of a quantum-mechanical two-level system is spin. The simplest
picture of spin is a magnetic moment pointing up or down. The full quantum properties of …

The paper reviews the interplay of Rashba/Dresselhaus spin splittings in various two‐
dimensional systems made of zinc‐blende III–V, wurtzite, and SiGe semiconductors. We …

Non-Abelian anyons—particles whose exchange noncommutatively transforms a system's
quantum state—are widely sought for the exotic fundamental physics they harbour and for …

The spin response function for electrons confined in a quantum dot is studied within the time-
dependent local spin density approximation (TDLSDA) of density functional theory. In the …

We have measured the relaxation time, T 1, of the spin of a single electron confined in a
semiconductor quantum dot (a proposed quantum bit). In a magnetic field, applied parallel to …

The processing of quantum information based on the electron spin degree of freedom,
requires fast and coherent manipulation of local spins. One approach is to provide spatially …

We investigate theoretically the Zeeman effect on the lowest confined electron in quantum
wires and quantum dots. A general relation is established between the symmetry of a low …

We observe quantum beats in the time-resolved photoluminescence of GaAs quantum wells
in a magnetic field perpendicular to the growth direction. These beats originate from Larmor …

The magnetic g factor for n= 1 heavy-hole–electron excitons in type-I GaAs/Al x Ga 1− x As
quantum wells has been determined at 1.8 K as a function of well width (L z) from the …
