Homodyne Spin Noise Spectroscopy of Single Quantum Dots — •Pavel Sterin, Kai Hühn, Julia Wiegand, Jens Hübner, and Michael Oestreich — Institut für Festkörperphysik, Leibniz Universität Hannover, Appelstr. 2, D-30167 Hannover, Germany

Spin noise spectroscopy (SNS) is a technique that can be used to investigate the spin dynamics of sensitive semiconductor systems in a quasi-non-perturbative way. However, for the most delicate systems like, e.g., single InGaAs quantum dots it seemed that SNS had reached its limits: classic setups exhibit an electrical noise that dominates the measurements at intensities low enough to keep the residual absorption acceptable [1]. Further reduction of the intensity is limited by prohibitively long integration times [3].

We propose a setup that employs homodyne SNS as first demonstrated by [2],[3] and [4]. An all optical amplification is realized by coupling the experiment to a homodyne interferometer. This modification enables efficient integration times and a quantum-limited, i.e., optimal, signal-to-noise ratio. Finally, the new setup will allow us to gain insight into unperturbed spin dynamics of single quantum dots.
