Abstract

The spin coherence of two-dimensional electrons is determined by two independent mechanisms: a single particle relaxation owing to spatially fluctuating magnetic field, and a many-particle exchange interaction maintaining collective precession of the electron spins with a common Larmor frequency. In this study, we investigate the structure of a time-resolved Kerr rotation signal for the different spin states of two-dimensional electron system subjected to the quantizing magnetic field. At low temperatures, when spin–spin correlations define the ground state of the two-dimensional electron system, our data show a nonlinear damping of Larmor oscillations. The amplitude and the correlation length of the fluctuating magnetic field acting on individual electron spins are estimated.
