Abstract

Ultrafast spin dynamics in diluted magnetic semiconductor heterostructures are probed to observe the effects of dimensionally and quantum confinement on spin scattering. Two novel structures, the spin superlattice and the magnetically-coupled double quantum well, exhibit unusual spin behavior. These experiments resolve energy-dependent electronic and magnetic interactions on a femtosecond time scale in quantum geometries.
