The effect of hyperfine interaction on the room-temperature defect-enabled spin filtering effect in GaNAs alloys is investigated both experimentally and theoretically through a master equation approach based on the hyperfine and Zeeman interaction between electron and nuclear spin of the spin filtering defect. We show that the nuclear spin polarization can be tuned through the optically induced spin polarization of conduction band electrons.

We demonstrate electrical detection of the $^{14}$N nuclear spin coherence of NV centers at room temperature. Nuclear spins are candidates for quantum memories in quantum-information devices and quantum sensors, and hence the electrical detection of
nuclear spin coherence is essential to develop and integrate such quantum devices. In the present study, we used a pulsed electrically detected electron-nuclear double resonance technique to measure the Rabi oscillations and coherence time ($T_2$) of $^{14}$N nuclear spins in NV centers at room temperature. We observed $T_2 approx$ 0.9 ms at room temperature. Our results will pave the way for the development of novel electron- and nuclear-spin-based diamond quantum devices.
We propose and numerically simulate an optoelectronic compact circular polarimeter. It allows to electrically measure the degree of circular polarization and light intensity at room temperature for a wide range of incidence angles in a single shot. T
he device, being based on GaAsN, is easy to integrate into standard electronics and does not require bulky movable parts nor extra detectors. Its operation hinges mainly on two phenomena: the spin dependent capture of electrons and the hyperfine interaction between bound electrons and nuclei on Ga$^{2+}$ paramagnetic centers in GaAsN. The first phenomenon confers the device with sensitivity to the degree of circular polarization and the latter allows to discriminate the handedness of the incident light.
Spin defects in silicon carbide (SiC) with mature wafer-scale fabrication and micro/nano-processing technologies have recently drawn considerable attention. Although room temperature single-spin manipulation of colour centres in SiC has been demonstr
ated, the typically detected contrast is less than 2%, and the photon count rate is also low. Here, we present the coherent manipulation of single divacancy spins in 4H-SiC with a high readout contrast (-30%) and a high photon count rate (150 kilo counts per second) under ambient conditions, which are competitive with the nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centres in diamond. Coupling between a single defect spin and a nearby nuclear spin is also observed. We further provide a theoretical explanation for the high readout contrast by analysing the defect levels and decay paths. Since the high readout contrast is of utmost importance in many applications of quantum technologies, this work might open a new territory for SiC-based quantum devices with many advanced properties of the host material.
We calculate the transfer rate of correlations from polarization entangled photons to the collective spin of a many-electron state in a two-band system. It is shown that when a semiconductor absorbs pairs of photons from a two-mode squeezed vacuum, c
ertain fourth order electron-photon processes correlate the spins of the excited electron pairs of different quasi-momenta. Different distributions of the quantum Stokes vector of the light lead to either enhancement or reduction of the collective spin correlations, depending on the symmetry of the distribution. We find that as the squeezing of the light becomes non-classical, the spin correlations exhibit a crossover from being positive with a $sim N^2$ ($N$ is average photon number) scaling, to being negative with $sim N$ scaling, even when $N$ is not small. Negative spin correlations mean a preponderance of spin singlets in the optically generated state. We discuss the possibility to measure the collective spin correlations in a combined measurement of the Faraday rotation fluctuation spectrum and excitation density in a steady-state configuration.
Optically active defects in solids with accessible spin states are promising candidates for solid state quantum information and sensing applications. To employ these defects as quantum building blocks, coherent manipulation of their spin state is req
uired. Here we realize coherent control of ensembles of boron vacancy (V$_B^-$) centers in hexagonal boron nitride (hBN). Specifically, by applying pulsed spin resonance protocols, we measure spin-lattice relaxation time ($T_1$) of 18 $mu$s and spin coherence time ($T_2$) of 2 $mu$s at room temperature. The spin-lattice relaxation time increases by three orders of magnitude at cryogenic temperature. Furthermore, employing a two- and three-pulse electron spin-echo envelope modulation (ESEEM) we separate the quadrupole and hyperfine interactions with the surrounding nuclei. Finally, by applying a method to decouple the spin state from its inhomogeneous nuclear environment - a hole-burning - the spectral optically detected magnetic resonance linewidth is significantly reduced to several tens of kHz, thus extending the spin coherence time by a factor of three. Our results are important for employment of van der Waals materials for quantum technologies, specifically in the context of using hBN as a high-resolution quantum sensor for hybrid quantum systems including 2D heterostructures, nanoscale devices and emerging atomically thin magnets.
