The effective magnetic field of the NSF is about 30 mT at low excitation power. The NSF distribution becomes highly anisotropic at strong optical excitation by circularly polarized light with periodically alternating helicity. This phenomenon is attributed to a decrease of the nuclear spin entropy due to the hyperfine interaction with polarized electron spins. The DNP is limited to small values for intense, but short photoexcitation.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2008-05-21T10:21:46.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "as/gaas quantum dots", "hyperfine interaction", "manifestations", "nuclear spin fluctuations", "dynamic nuclear polarization" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 14, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008arXiv0805.3247C" } } }
