Dynamical spin-electric coupling in a quantum dot

Dynamical spin-electric coupling in a quantum dot

Due to the spin-orbital coupling in an anisotropic semiconductor quantum dot, a freely precessing electron spin produces a time-dependent charge density. This creates a sizable electric field outside the dot, leading to promising applications in spintronics. The spin-electric coupling can be employed for noninvasive single-spin detection by electrical methods. We …
