Abstract:We theoretically examine injection polarization of nuclear spins in silicon nanostructures with hyperfine interaction of nuclei with excited triplet states. We predict the possibility of the appearance of self-sustaining nuclear spin polarization, initiated by an external field. We show that if the external magnetic field is varied, we observe up to a 600-fold jump in the number of spin-polarized nuclei. A similar up to 40-fold jump also appears as the charge carrier injection rate increases.Introduction. Stud… Show more
