• Abstract: We investigate experimentally and theoretically the temporal evolution of the spin of the conduction band electron and that of the valence band heavy hole, both confined in the same semiconductor quantum dot. In particular, the coherence of the spin purity in the limit of a weak externally applied magnetic field, comparable in strength to the Overhauser field due to fluctuations in the surrounding nuclei spins. We use an all-optical pulse technique to measure the spin evolution as a function of time after its initialization. We show for the first time that the spin purity performs complex temporal oscillations which we quantitatively simulate using a central spin model. Our model encompasses the Zeeman and the hyperfine interactions between the spin and the external and Overhauser fields, respectively. Our novel studies are essential for the design and optimization of quantum-dot-based entangled multi-photon sources. Specifically, cluster and graph states, which set stringent limitations on the magnitude of the externally applied field.

  Carbon nanoribbon or nanographene qubit arrays can facilitate quantum-to-quantum transduction between light, charge, and spin. We study spin decoherence due to coupling with a surrounding nuclear spin bath of an electronic molecular spin of a vanadyl phthalocyanine (VOPc) molecule integrated on an armchair-edged graphene nanoribbon (GNR) We find that the decoherence time $T$ is anisotropic with respect to magnetic field orientation and determined only by nuclear spins on VOPc and GNR.

  We investigate the coherent spin dynamics of a hetero-spin system formed by a spin S=1 featuring a non-zero crystal field. We show that the zero-quantum coherences we create between them can be remarkably long-lived. These spin dyads could be exploited as nanoscale gradiometers for precision magnetometry or as probes for magnetic-noise-free electrometry and thermal sensing.

  We study a toy model of a quantum entanglement generation between two spins (qubits) mediated by a relativistic free scalar field. Because of the associated particle creation into an open system, the quantum state of spins is partially decohered. We calculate various quantities such as spin correlations, entanglement entropies, mutual information and negativity, and study their behaviors in various limiting situations.

  We experimentally investigate individual spin dynamics in a two-dimensional ensemble of electron spins on the surface of a diamond crystal. We show that this anomalously slow relaxation rate is due to the presence of strong dynamical disorder.

  Nuclear spins in certain solids couple weakly to their environment, making them attractive candidates for quantum information processing and inertial sensing. We demonstrate optical nuclear spin polarization and rapid quantum control of nuclear spins in a diamond physically rotating at $1,$kHz, faster than the nuclear spin coherence time. Our work liberates a previously inaccessible degree of freedom of the NV nuclear spin, unlocking new approaches to quantum control and rotation sensing.

  Spin-bath interactions are strongly anisotropic, and rapid physical rotation has long been used in solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance. We show that the interaction between electron spins of nitrogen-vacancy centers and a bath of $13$C nuclear spins introduces decoherence into the system. Our findings offer new insights into the use of physical rotation for quantum control with implications for quantum systems having motional and rotational degrees of freedom that are not fixed.
