Cooling of the Nuclear Spin System of a Nanostructure by Oscillating Magnetic Fields.

We propose a method of cooling nuclear spin systems of solid-state nanostructures by applying a time-dependent magnetic field synchronized with spin fluctuations. Optical spin noise spectroscopy is considered a method of fluctuation control. Depending on the mutual orientation of the oscillating magnetic field and the probe light beam, cooling might be either provided by dynamic spin polarization in an external static field or result from population transfer between spin levels without build-up of a net magnetic moment ("true cooling").
