We measure the donor-bound electron longitudinal spin-relaxation time ($T_1$) as a function of magnetic field ($B$) in three high-purity direct-bandgap semiconductors: GaAs, InP, and CdTe, observing a maximum $T_1$ of $1.4~text{ms}$, $0.4~text{ms}$ and $1.2~text{ms}$, respectively. In GaAs and InP at low magnetic field, up to $sim2~text{T}$, the spin-relaxation mechanism is strongly density and temperature dependent and is attributed to the random precession of the electron spin in hyperfine fields caused by the lattice nuclear spins. In all three semiconductors at high magnetic field, we observe a power-law dependence ${T_1 propto B^{- u}}$ with ${3lesssim u lesssim 4}$. Our theory predicts that the direct spin-phonon interaction is important in all three materials in this regime in contrast to quantum dot structures. In addition, the admixture mechanism caused by Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling combined with single-phonon processes has a comparable contribution in GaAs. We find excellent agreement between high-field theory and experiment for GaAs and CdTe with no free parameters, however a significant discrepancy exists for InP.

We observe millisecond spin-flip relaxation times of donor-bound electrons in high-purity n-GaAs . This is three orders of magnitude larger than previously reported lifetimes in n-GaAs . Spin-flip times are measured as a function of magnetic field an

The monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides are an emergent semiconductor platform exhibiting rich excitonic physics with coupled spin-valley degree of freedom and optical addressability. Here, we report a new series of low energy excitonic emissi
on lines in the photoluminescence spectrum of ultraclean monolayer WSe2. These excitonic satellites are composed of three major peaks with energy separations matching known phonons, and appear only with electron doping. They possess homogenous spatial and spectral distribution, strong power saturation, and anomalously long population (> 6 ${mu}$s) and polarization lifetimes (> 100 ns). Resonant excitation of the free inter- and intra-valley bright trions leads to opposite optical orientation of the satellites, while excitation of the free dark trion resonance suppresses the satellites photoluminescence. Defect-controlled crystal synthesis and scanning tunneling microscopy measurements provide corroboration that these features are dark excitons bound to dilute donors, along with associated phonon replicas. Our work opens opportunities to engineer homogenous single emitters and explore collective quantum optical phenomena using intrinsic donor-bound excitons in ultraclean 2D semiconductors.
We compute the transient dynamics of phonons in contact with high energy hot charge carriers in 12 polar and non-polar semiconductors, using a first-principles Boltzmann transport framework. For most materials, we find that the decay in electronic te
mperature departs significantly from a single-exponential model at times ranging from 1 ps to 15 ps after electronic excitation, a phenomenon concomitant with the appearance of non-thermal vibrational modes. We demonstrate that these effects result from the slow thermalization within the phonon subsystem, caused by the large heterogeneity in the timescales of electron-phonon and phonon-phonon interactions in these materials. We propose a generalized 2-temperature model accounting for the phonon thermalization as a limiting step of electron-phonon thermalization, which captures the full thermal relaxation of hot electrons and holes in semiconductors. A direct consequence of our findings is that, for semiconductors, information about the spectral distribution of electron-phonon and phonon-phonon coupling can be extracted from the multi-exponential behavior of the electronic temperature.
We report the results of an experiment investigating coherence and correlation effects in a system of coupled donors. Two donors are strongly coupled to two leads in a parallel configuration within a nano-wire field effect transistor. By applying a m
agnetic field we observe interference between two donor-induced Kondo channels, which depends on the Aharonov-Bohm phase picked up by electrons traversing the structure. This results in a non-monotonic conductance as a function of magnetic field and clearly demonstrates that donors can be coupled through a many-body state in a coherent manner. We present a model which shows good qualitative agreement with our data. The presented results add to the general understanding of interference effects in a donor-based correlated system which may allow to create artificial lattices that exhibit exotic many-body excitations.
We propose a method to electrically control electron spins in donor-based qubits in silicon. By taking advantage of the hyperfine coupling difference between a single-donor and a two-donor quantum dot, spin rotation can be driven by inducing an elect
ric dipole between them and applying an alternating electric field generated by in-plane gates. These qubits can be coupled with exchange interaction controlled by top detuning gates. The qubit device can be fabricated deep in the silicon lattice with atomic precision by scanning tunneling probe technique. We have combined a large-scale full band atomistic tight-binding modeling approach with a time-dependent effective Hamiltonian description, providing a design with quantitative guidelines.
