Static and dynamic properties of electron spins in self-assembled (In,Ga)As/GaAs quantum dots which contain on average a single electron per dot were studied by pump-probe Faraday rotation. Examples given here are the g-factor tensor components as well as the dephasing time T*_2 within a dot ensemble.
