Abstract
In this chapter we discuss the coherent spin dynamics of carriers confined in semiconductor nanostructures. To monitor this dynamics, the spins are oriented optically by polarized pulsed laser excitation and their subsequent coherent precession about an external magnetic field is detected. The precession frequency is determined by the splitting between the spin levels. Any zero field splitting induced by hyperfine or spin-orbit interaction can be tailored through the magnetic field.
