This technique enables the measurement of the spin dynamic of a single heavy hole localized in a flat (InGa)As quantum dot. Magnetic field and light intensity dependent studies reveal even at low magnetic fields a strong magnetic field dependence of the longitudinal heavy hole spin relaxation time with an extremely long $T_1$ of $\\ge$ 180 $\\mu$s at 31 mT and 5 K. The wavelength dependence of the spin noise power discloses for finite light intensities an inhomogeneous single quantum dot spin noise spectrum which is explained by charge fluctuations in the direct neighborhood of the quantum dot. The charge fluctuations are corroborated by the distinct intensity dependence of the effective spin relaxation rate.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2014-04-14T14:42:29.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "72.25.Rb", "72.70.+m", "78.67.Hc", "85.75.-d" ], "keywords": [ "single hole spin", "optical spin noise", "hole spin relaxation time", "single quantum dot spin", "quantum dot spin noise" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review Letters", "year": 2014, "month": "Apr", "volume": 112, "number": 15, "pages": 156601 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014PhRvL.112o6601D" } } }
