The spin dynamics of electrons and holes confined in InAs quantum dots (QDs) are of particular interest for future applications in solid state quantum information processing. We employ spin noise spectroscopy (SNS) to access the intrinsic spin dynamics of confined carriers in individual QDs [1]. Measurements of single heavy hole spin dynamics reveal very long spin lifetimes up to 180 µ s and a strong dependence of the longitudinal heavy hole spin relexation time for low magnetic fields [2]. The observed parasitic influence of charge fluctuations in the QD vicinity can be reduced by embedding the QDs in a Schottky diode structure. This also yields the advantages of deterministic charge control and tuning of the QD resonance via the quantum confined Stark effect.
