Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Indirect bandgap semiconductors including silicon are currently a major focus of research for solar cell and spin device applications. However, there had been no report on the spin relaxation time of optically injected delocalized carriers in diamond. In this study, we demonstrated optical injection of spin-polarized carriers in indirect bandgap semiconductors, which paves a way to the versatile applications of spin and momentum degrees of freedom.
