Strong enhancement of heavy-hole Landé factor $q$ in InGaAs symmetric quantum dots revealed by coherent optical spectroscopy

Abstract

We reveal the existence of a large in-plane heavy-hole $g$ factor in symmetric self-assembled (001) (In,Ga)As/GaAs quantum dots due to warping of valence band states. This warping dominates over the well-established mechanism associated with a reduced symmetry of quantum dots and the corresponding mixing of heavy-hole and light-hole states. The effect of band warping is manifested in a unique angular dependence of a trion photon echo signal on the direction of external magnetic field with respect to the sample axes. It results in a uniform magnetic-field-induced optical anisotropy for the entire quantum dot ensemble which is a prerequisite for realization of spin quantum memories and spin-photon entanglement in the ensemble.
