Weak localization of holes in high-mobility heterostructures
Theory of weak localization is developed for two-dimensional holes in
semiconductor heterostructures. Ballistic regime of weak localization where the
backscattering occurs from few impurities is studied with account for
anisotropic momentum scattering of holes. The transition from weak localization
to anti-localization is demonstrated for long dephasing times. For stronger
dephasing the conductivity correction is negative at all hole densities due to
non-monotonous dependence of the spin relaxation time on the hole wavevector.
The anomalous temperature dependent correction to the conductivity is
calculated. We show that the temperature dependence of the conductivity is
non-monotonous at moderate hole densities.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figure
Characterization of deep impurities in semiconductors by terahertz tunneling ionization
Tunneling ionization in high frequency fields as well as in static fields is suggested as a method for the characterization of deep impurities in semiconductors. It is shown that an analysis of the field and temperature dependences of the ionization probability allows to obtain defect parameters like the charge of the impurity, tunneling times, the Huang–Rhys parameter, the difference between optical and thermal binding energy, and the basic structure of the defect adiabatic potentials. Compared to static fields, high frequency electric fields in the terahertz-range offer various advantages, as they can be applied contactlessly and homogeneously even to bulk samples using the intense radiation of a high power pulsed far-infrared laser. Furthermore, impurity ionization with terahertz radiation can be detected as photoconductive signal with a very high sensitivity in a wide range of electric field strengths
Long-term Dynamics of the Electron-nuclear Spin System of a Semiconductor Quantum Dot
A quasi-classical theoretical description of polarization and relaxation of
nuclear spins in a quantum dot with one resident electron is developed for
arbitrary mechanisms of electron spin polarization. The dependence of the
electron-nuclear spin dynamics on the correlation time of electron
spin precession, with frequency , in the nuclear hyperfine field is
analyzed. It is demonstrated that the highest nuclear polarization is achieved
for a correlation time close to the period of electron spin precession in the
nuclear field. For these and larger correlation times, the indirect hyperfine
field, which acts on nuclear spins, also reaches a maximum. This maximum is of
the order of the dipole-dipole magnetic field that nuclei create on each other.
This value is non-zero even if the average electron polarization vanishes. It
is shown that the transition from short correlation time to
does not affect the general structure of the equation for nuclear spin
temperature and nuclear polarization in the Knight field, but changes the
values of parameters, which now become functions of . For
correlation times larger than the precession time of nuclei in the electron
hyperfine field, it is found that three thermodynamic potentials (,
, ) characterize the polarized electron-nuclear spin
system. The values of these potentials are calculated assuming a sharp
transition from short to long correlation times, and the relaxation mechanisms
of these potentials are discussed. The relaxation of the nuclear spin potential
is simulated numerically showing that high nuclear polarization decreases
relaxation rate.Comment: RevTeX 4, 12 pages, 9 figure
Manipulation of the Spin Memory of Electrons in n-GaAs
We report on the optical manipulation of the electron spin relaxation time in
a GaAs based heterostructure. Experimental and theoretical study shows that the
average electron spin relaxes through hyperfine interaction with the lattice
nuclei, and that the rate can be controlled by the electron-electron
interactions. This time has been changed from 300 ns down to 5 ns by variation
of the laser frequency. This modification originates in the optically induced
depletion of n-GaAs layer

Statistical forecasting of panel data based on state space models
Panel (or longitudinal) data describes a set of objects which are observed during certain period of time, so they
consist of repeated observations of the same objects in sequential time periods. The following examples of panel
data can be mentioned: annual household studies, monthly performance indicators for economic institutions and
many others. In this study we provide another approach to forecasting cross-sectional data based on state space
models together with Kalman filtering procedure
Goldstone Mode Relaxation in a Quantum Hall Ferromagnet due to Hyperfine Interaction with Nuclei
Spin relaxation in quantum Hall ferromagnet regimes is studied. As the
initial non-equilibrium state, a coherent deviation of the spin system from the
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.Comment: 8 page
KTM TOKAMAK OPERATION SCENARIOS SOFTWARE INFRASTRUCTURE
One of the largest problems for tokamak devices such as Kazakhstan Tokamak for Material Testing (KTM) is the operation scenarios' development and execution. Operation scenarios may be varied often, so a convenient hardware and software solution is required for scenario management and execution. Dozens of diagnostic and control subsystems with numerous configuration settings may be used in an experiment, so it is required to automate the subsystem configuration process to coordinate changes of the related settings and to prevent errors. Most of the diagnostic and control subsystems software at KTM was unified using an extra software layer, describing the hardware abstraction interface. The experiment sequence was described using a command language.The whole infrastructure was brought together by a universal communication protocol supporting various media, including Ethernet and serial links. The operation sequence execution infrastructure was used at KTM to carry out plasma experiments
The Nuclear Spin Nanomagnet
Linearly polarized light tuned slightly below the optical transition of the
negatively charged exciton (trion) in a single quantum dot causes the
spontaneous nuclear spin polarization (self-polarization) at a level close to
100%. The effective magnetic field of spin-polarized nuclei brings the optical
transition energy into resonance with photon energy. The resonantly enhanced
Overhauser effect sustains the stability of the nuclear self-polarization even
in the absence of spin polarization of the quantum dot electron. As a result
the optically selected single quantum dot represents a tiny magnet with the
ferromagnetic ordering of nuclear spins - the nuclear spin nanomagnet.Comment: 19 pages, including 3 figures. Short version has been accepted for
