We report the application of time- and polarization-resolved photoluminescence up-conversion spectroscopy to the study of spin capture and energy relaxation in positively and negatively charged, as well as neutral, InAs self-assembled quantum dots. When compared to the neutral dots, we find that carrier capture and relaxation to the ground state is much faster in the highly charged dots, suggesting that electron-hole scattering dominates this process. The long spin lifetime, short capture time, and high radiative efficiency of the positively charged dots, indicates that these structures are superior to both quantum well and neutral quantum dot light-emitting diode (LED) spin detectors for spintronics applications.

The spin relaxation time $T_{1}$ in zinc blende GaN quantum dot is investigated for different magnetic field, well width and quantum dot diameter. The spin relaxation caused by the two most important spin relaxation mechanisms in zinc blende semicond uctor quantum dots, {i.e.} the electron-phonon scattering in conjunction with the Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling and the second-order process of the hyperfine interaction combined with the electron-phonon scattering, are systematically studied. The relative importance of the two mechanisms are compared in detail under different conditions. It is found that due to the small spin orbit coupling in GaN, the spin relaxation caused by the second-order process of the hyperfine interaction combined with the electron-phonon scattering plays much more important role than it does in the quantum dot with narrower band gap and larger spin-orbit coupling, such as GaAs and InAs.
We study the spin-valley Kondo effect of a silicon quantum dot occupied by $% mathcal{N}$ electrons, with $mathcal{N}$ up to four. We show that the Kondo resonance appears in the $mathcal{N}=1,2,3$ Coulomb blockade regimes, but not in the $mathcal{N} =4$ one, in contrast to the spin-1/2 Kondo effect, which only occurs at $mathcal{N}=$ odd. Assuming large orbital level spacings, the energy states of the dot can be simply characterized by fourfold spin-valley degrees of freedom. The density of states (DOS) is obtained as a function of temperature and applied magnetic field using a finite-U equation-of-motion approach. The structure in the DOS can be detected in transport experiments. The Kondo resonance is split by the Zeeman splitting and valley splitting for double- and triple-electron Si dots, in a similar fashion to single-electron ones. The peak structure and splitting patterns are much richer for the spin-valley Kondo effect than for the pure spin Kondo effect.
Charged impurities in semiconductor quantum dots comprise one of the main obstacles to achieving scalable fabrication and manipulation of singlet-triplet spin qubits. We theoretically show that using dots that contain several electrons each can help to overcome this problem through the screening of the rough and noisy impurity potential by the excess electrons. We demonstrate how the desired screening properties turn on as the number of electrons is increased, and we characterize the properties of a double quantum dot singlet-triplet qubit for small odd numbers of electrons per dot. We show that the sensitivity of the multi-electron qubit to charge noise may be an order of magnitude smaller than that of the two-electron qubit.
We demonstrate a novel method for deterministic charging of InAs quantum dots embedded in photonic crystal nanoresonators using a unique vertical p-n-i-n junction within the photonic crystal membrane. Charging is confirmed by the observation of Zeema n splitting for magnetic fields applied in the Voigt configuration. Spectrally resolved photoluminescence measurements are complemented by polarization resolved studies that show the precise structure of the Zeeman quadruplet. Integration of quantum dots in nanoresonators strongly enhances far-field collection efficiency and paves the way for the exploitation of enhanced spin-photon interactions for fabrication of efficient quantum nodes in a scalable solid state platform.
Photoinduced circular dichroism experiments in an oblique magnetic field allow measurements of Larmor precession frequencies, and so give a precise determination of the electron Lande g factor and its anisotropy in self-assembled InAs/GaAs quantum do ts emitting at 1.32 eV. In good agreement with recent theoretical results, we measure g perp= 0.397 +_ 0.003 and g par = 0.18 +- 0.02.
