Abstrakt: The excitonic spin relaxation in cubic GaN is observed by spin-dependent pump and probe reflectance measurements with sub-picosecond time resolution. The spin relaxation times at 15 – 75 K are found to be longer than 5 ns and short spin relaxation times on the picosecond order are not present. Although these long spin relaxation times are in striking contrast to the sub-picosecond spin relaxation of A-band free excitons in hexagonal GaN, they are consistent with the dependence that spin relaxation time becomes longer for wider-band-gap zincblende semiconductors. © 2007 American Institute of Physics [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
