Electronic, Optical and Magnetic Properties of Self-assembled Quantum Dots Containing Magnetic Ions

There is currently interest in developing control over the spin of a single Manganese (Mn) ion, the atomic limit of magnetic memory, in semiconductor quantum dots (QDs). In this work we present theoretical results showing how one can manipulate the spin of Mn ion with light in a QD by engineering Mn...
