Precise measurements of electron and hole g factors of single quantum dots by using nuclear field

摘要

We demonstrated the cancellation of the external magnetic field by the nuclear field at one edge of the nuclear polarization bistability in single InAlAs quantum dots. The cancellation for the electron Zeeman splitting gives the precise value of the hole g factor. In combination with the exciton g factor that is obtained from the Zeeman splitting for linearly polarized excitation, the magnitude and the sign of the electron and hole g factors in the growth direction are evaluated.
