Spin splitting in semiconductor heterostructures for B→0
Abstract
Spin splitting of subband states in semiconductor heterostructures at B=0 is ascribed to the inversion asymmetry--induced bulk ${\mathrm{k}}^{3}$ term, which dominates in large-gap materials, and to the interface spin-orbit or Rashba term, which becomes important in narrow-gap systems. We show for AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructures how this finite spin splitting at B=0 evolves from the Zeeman splitting for B\ensuremath{\ne}0 and predict a vanishing spin splitting at a finite -magnetic- field ---, which depends on the electron concentration in the inversion layer.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
