Oscillation of spin polarization in a two-dimensional hole gas under a perpendicular magnetic field
Spin-charge coupling is studied for a strongly confined two-dimensional hole gas subject to a perpendicular magnetic field. The study is based on spin-charge coupled drift-diffusion equations derived from quantum-kinetic equations in an exact manner. The spin-orbit interaction induces an extra out-of-plane spin polarization. This contribution exhibits a persistent oscillatory pattern in the str...
متن کاملPlasmons in spin-orbit coupled two-dimensional hole gas systems
We study the dynamical dielectric function of a two-dimensional hole gas, exemplified on [001] GaAs and InAs quantum wells, within the Luttinger model extended to the two lowest subbands including bulk and structure inversion asymmetric terms. The plasmon dispersion shows a pronounced anisotropy for GaAsand InAs-based systems. In GaAs this leads to a suppression of plasmons due to Landau dampin...
متن کاملSpin - Polarization transition in the two dimensional elec - tron gas
– We present a numerical study of magnetic phases of the 2D electron gas near freezing. The calculations are performed by diffusion Monte Carlo in the fixed node approximation. At variance with the 3D case we find no evidence for the stability of a partially polarized phase. With plane wave nodes in the trial function, the polarization transition takes place at rs = 20, whereas the best availab...
متن کاملGiant magneto-oscillations of electric-field-induced spin polarization in a two-dimensional electron gas
We consider a disordered two-dimensional electron gas with spin-orbit coupling placed in a perpendicular magnetic field and calculate the magnitude and direction of the electric-field-induced spin polarization. We find that in strong magnetic fields the polarization becomes an oscillatory function of the magnetic field and that the amplitude of these oscillations is parametrically larger than t...
متن کاملAnisotropic current-induced spin accumulation in the two-dimensional electron gas with spin-orbit coupling
We investigate the magnetoelectric (or inverse spin-galvanic) effect in the two dimensional electron gases with both Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling using an exact solution of the Boltzmann equation for electron spin and momentum. The spin response to an in-plane electric field turns out to be highly anisotropic while the usual charge conductivity remains isotropic, contrary to earli...
