Abstract
Circular dichromatic absorption difference spectroscopy is developed to measure the spin diffusion dynamics of electrons in bulk n-GaAs. This spectroscopy has higher detection sensitivity over homodyne detection of spin-grating-diffracted signal. A model to describe circular dichromatic absorption difference signal is derived and used to fit experimental signal to retrieve decaying rate of spin gratings. A spin diffusion constant of Ds=201±25 cm2/s for bulk n-GaAs has been measured at room temperature using this technique and is close to electron diffusion constant (Dc), which is much different from the case in GaAs quantum wells where Ds is markedly less than Dc.
