Abstract

Spin noise (SN) spectroscopy measurements on delicate semiconductor spin systems, like single (In,Ga)As quantum dots, are currently not limited by optical shot noise but rather by the electronic noise of the detection system. We report on a realization of homodyne SN spectroscopy enabling shot-noise-limited SN measurements. The proof-of-principle measurements on impurities in an isotopically enriched rubidium atom vapor show that homodyne SN spectroscopy can be utilized even in the low-frequency spectrum, which facilitates advanced semiconductor spin research like higher order SN measurements on spin qubits.
