Singly-charged (In,Ga)As/GaAs quantum dots (QDs) offer a playground to study the dynamics of the electron-spin (e-spin) confined within a nuclear spin bath. In a magnetic field perpendicular to the growth axis, the µs-long e-spin transverse coherence time allows preferential pumping of e-spins with a precession frequency resonant to the pumping periodicity. The periodical pumping moreover leads to a nuclear bath polarization (Overhauser field) that drives a single e-spin’s precession frequency into resonance with the pumping frequency, the so called nuclei-induced frequency focusing (NIFF). While it has been reported that the nuclear spin coherence time for singly-charged QDs is in the µs range, we find that the synchroization of the nuclear-electron spin system also leads to a ms-long nuclear spin coherence time.
