Abstract:Using a microfabricated, p-type GaAs Hall bar, is it shown that the combined application of co-planar electric and magnetic fields enables the observation at 50 K of spatial oscillations of the photoluminescence circular polarization due to the precession of drifting spin-polarized photoelectrons. Observation of these oscillations as a function of electric field E gives a direct measurement of the minority carrier drift mobility and reveals that, for E = 800 V/cm, spin coherence is preserved over a length as l… Show more
