Abstract

We investigate the electron spin dynamics in a p-type GaAs/AlAs resonant tunnelling device by measuring the time-and polarized-resolved photoluminescence (PL) from the GaAs quantum well under a high magnetic field (15 T). The voltage dependence of the PL transients have revealed various tunnelling processes with different time constants that give rise to distinct spin-polarized carriers injected into the double-barrier structure.
