Abstract

We report on the magneto-optical study of spin polarized energetic fine structures for exciton complex in single CdSe quantum dot (QD) by using micro- photoluminescence (micro-PL) spectroscopy. The zero-field splitting of exciton luminescence peak arisen from the anisotropic exchange interaction of carriers in the QDs was observed. The g-factors for exciton and negatively-charged exciton, i.e. trion in a single QD were determined by fitting the magnetic field dependence of the corresponding PL peaks. By exciting the single QD with circularly polarized light of σ- and σ+ polarization, the spin-up and spin-down trions were selectively generated. The ratio, τ/τsf, of the exciton lifetime and the time constants for the spin-flipping process of trion in a single QD was estimated to be 0.13, which implies a long spin-lifetime in single CdSe QD.
