| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Using the spin precession around the effective magnetic field induced by the spin-orbit interaction in semiconductors, is effective method to manipulate the electron spins without under the external magnetic fields. Recently, the THz pulse which amplitude exceeds 1 MV/cm has been successfully generated by using the tilted-pulse front-phase technique. When such an intense THz pulse is irradiated, the electron spins drift and feel strong effective magnetic field which result in the high speed spin rotation. We setup the optical systems of tilted-pulse front-phase technique for THz pulse generation and time-resolved Kerr rotation for spin dynamics measurement. We measured the spin dynamics under the irradiation of the THz pulse which has the electric field amplitude of 600 V/cm. However, we could not observe the drift motion and the rotation of the spins in our measurements. Our Monte-Carlo simulation shows that the field amplitude is too small to drift the spins at the room temperature.
