Modelling of the spin dynamics of an individual magnetic atom in a quantum dot
We have studied the spin dynamics of an individual Mn atom embedded a CdTe quantum dot. Our results show that the Mn spin relaxation is faster when the quantum dot... -
New quantum spin states induced by magnetic frustration on the kagome lattice
Magnetic frustration helps destabilizing conventional Néel order at T = 0 in dimensions 2, and therefore allows the emergence of new original quantum phases. The S=1/2... -
New trends in the physics of spinor exciton-polariton condensates : topologic...
Along this thesis manuscript I shall present some emergent nonlinear phenomena in spinor exciton polariton condensates. After an introductory chapter bringing the... -
Electron and nuclear spin dynamics in GaAs microcavities
The rotation of the plane of polarization of light upon transmission through a magnetized medium is known as Faraday rotation (FR). In non-magnetic semiconductors FR... -
Role of surfaces in magnetization dynamics and spin polarized transport : a s...
In this thesis, the interplay between electron transport and magnetization dynamics is explored in order to access to fundamental properties of ferromag- netic metal... -
Collective dynamics of excitons and exciton-polaritons in nanoscale heterostr...
In my thesis I will discuss some aspects of collective dynamics of excitons and exciton-polaritons in nanoscale heterostructures. In the first Chapter I will make a... -
Electronic read-out of a single nuclear spin based on a molecular spin transi...
This PhD thesis is at a cross-road between three different fields : the spintronics which uses the spin degree of freedom of the electron to build new devices ; the...
