Spin noise spectroscopy is capable of performing quantum non-demolition measurements of spin dynamics by off-resonant optical probing [1]. However, recent reports on heavy-hole spin dephasing in self-assembled (InGa)As quantum dots (QDs) show a non-negligible influence of the probe beam intensity on the dephasing time. This is due to residual light absorption disturbing the equilibrium [2].
A Hanbury Brown and Twiss type detection setup is implemented for single QD photoluminescence detection. This setup is further modified in order to enable Faraday fluctuation measurements by single photon counting which, in principle, provides access to the truly undisturbed spin dynamics by preventing light absorption.
