Experimental and theoretical studies of the coherent spin dynamics of two-dimensional GaAs/AlGaAs electron gas were performed. The system in the quantum Hall ferromagnet state exhibits a spin relaxation mechanism that is determined by many-particle Coulomb interactions. In addition to the spin exciton with changes in the spin quantum numbers of $delta S!=!delta S_z !=!-1$, the quantum Hall ferromagnet supports a Goldstone spin exciton that changes the spin quantum numbers to $delta S!=!0$ and $delta S_z!=!-1$, which corresponds to a coherent spin rotation of the entire electron system to a certain angle. The Goldstone spin exciton decays through a specific relaxation mechanism that is unlike any other collective spin state.

Spin relaxation in quantum Hall ferromagnet regimes is studied. As the initial non-equilibrium state, a coherent deviation of the spin system from the ${vec B}$ direction is considered and the breakdown of this Goldstone-mode state due to hyperfine coupling to nuclei is analyzed. The relaxation occurring non-exponentially with time is studied in terms of annihilation processes in the Goldstone condensate formed by zero spin excitons. The relaxation rate is calculated analytically even if the initial deviation is not small. This relaxation channel competes with the relaxation mechanisms due to spin-orbit coupling, and at strong magnetic fields it becomes dominating.
We report on the calculation of the cyclotron spin-flip excitation (CSFE) in a spin-polarized quantum Hall system at unit filling. This mode has a double-exciton component which contributes to the CSFE correlation energy but can not be found by means of a mean field approach. The result is compared with available experimental data.
A spin-rotation mode emerging in a quantum Hall ferromagnet due to laser pulse excitation is studied. This state, macroscopically representing a rotation of the entire electron spin-system to a certain angle, is not microscopically equivalent to a coherent turn of all spins as a single-whole and is presented in the form of a combination of eigen quantum states corresponding to all possible S_z spin numbers. The motion of the macroscopic quantum state is studied microscopically by solving a non-stationary Schroedinger equation and by means of a kinetic approach where damping of the spin-rotation mode is related to an elementary process, namely, transformation of a `Goldstone spin exciton to a `spin-wave exciton. The system exhibits a spin stochastizationa mechanism (determined by spatial fluctuations of the Lande g-factor) ensuring damping, transverse spin relaxation, but irrelevant to decay of spin-wave excitons and thus not involving longitudinal relaxation, i.e., recovery of the S_z number to its equilibrium value.
It is shown that the collective spin rotation of a single Skyrmion in quantum Hall ferromagnet can be regarded as precession of the entire spin texture in the external magnetic field, with an effective moment of inertia which becomes infinite in the zero g-factor limit. This low-lying spin excitation may dramatically enhance the nuclear spin relaxation rate via the hyperfine interaction in the quantum well slightly away from filling factor equal one.
Measurements of the Hall and dissipative conductivity of a strained Ge quantum well on a SiGe/(001)Si substrate in the quantum Hall regime are reported. We find quantum Hall states in the Composite Fermion family and a precursor signal at filling fraction $ u=5/2$. We analyse the results in terms of thermally activated quantum tunneling of carriers from one internal edge state to another across saddle points in the long range impurity potential. This shows that the gaps for different filling fractions closely follow the dependence predicted by theory. We also find that the estimates of the separation of the edge states at the saddle are in line with the expectations of an electrostatic model in the lowest spin-polarised Landau level (LL), but not in the spin-reversed LL where the density of quasiparticle states is not high enough to accommodate the carriers required.
