Abstract

Using magneto-tunneling spectroscopy, we observe the Zeeman spin splitting of the ground state of a single InAs quantum dot grown within AlAs. We obtain values for the g factor of different quantum dots between +0.52±0.08 and +1.6±0.2, with magnetic field applied in the plane of the dot. This value for the g factor is considerably different from that of bulk InAs (g=−14.8), and we explain this using a simple three band k⋅p calculation. Using the spin split states of the dot as a probe, we observe the complete spin polarization of the emitter accumulation layer.
