The spin dynamics show that the electron g-factor varies as a function of quantum well width and the transverse spin lifetime of several nano-seconds is robust up to room temperature. As a function of probe energy, the amplitude of the TRFR signal shows pronounced resonances, which allow one to identify individual exciton transitions. While the TRFR data are inconsistent with the conduction and valence band level scheme of spherical quantum-dot quantum wells, a model in which broken spherical symmetry is taken into account captures the essential features.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2005-12-03T13:30:47.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "spin dynamics", "level structure", "characterized cds/cdse/cds quantum-dot quantum wells", "valence band level scheme", "spherical quantum-dot quantum wells" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
