15 Jan 2007 | | Subject: | Mesoscopic Systems and Quantum Hall Effect | | Abstract: | We evaluate the distribution of Hall conductances in magnetic subbands of two-dimensional electron gas with Rashba spin-orbit (SO) coupling placed in a periodic potential and perpendicular magnetic field. In this semiconductor structure the spin-orbit coupling mixes the states of different magnetic subbands and changes the distribution of their Hall conductances in comparison with the case of spinless particles. The calculations were made for semiconductor structures with a weak ($AlGaAs/GaAs$) and relatively strong ($GaAs/InGaAs$) SO and Zeeman interactions. The Hall conductances of fully occupied magnetic subbands depend on the system parameters and can be changed when neighboring subbands touch each other. It was shown that in the real semiconductor structures with relatively strong SO coupling the distribution of Hall conductance differs from the quantization law predicted by Thouless et alcite{Thoul} for systems without spin-orbit coupling. In the case of weak SO interaction and relatively large lattice period the Hall conductance of magnetic subbands are the same as for spinless particles, but as the lattice period decreases and two neighboring subbands touch each other the distribution of Hall conductances is changed drastically. | | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0701316 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
