Resonant photoluminescence and dynamics of a hybrid Mn hole spin in a positively charged magnetic quantum dot

Résumé

We analyze, through resonant photoluminescence, the spin dynamics of an individual magnetic atom (Mn) coupled to a hole in a semiconductor quantum dot. The hybrid Mn hole spin and the positively charged exciton in a CdTe/ZnTe quantum dot form an ensemble of Λ systems which can be addressed optically. Autocorrelation of the resonant photoluminescence and resonant optical pumping experiments are used to study the spin relaxation channels in this multilevel spin system. We identified for the hybrid Mn hole spin an efficient relaxation channel driven by the interplay of the Mn hole exchange interaction and the coupling to acoustic phonons. We also show that the optical Λ systems are connected through inefficient spin flips than can be enhanced under weak transverse magnetic field. The dynamics of the resonant photoluminescence in a p-doped magnetic quantum dot is well described by a complete rate equation model. Our results suggest that long-lived hybrid Mn hole spin could be obtained in quantum dot systems with large heavy-hole/light-hole splitting.
