We report inelastic light scattering measurements of dispersive spin and charge density excitations in dilute 2D electron systems reaching densities less than 10^{10} cm^{-2}. In the quantum Hall state at nu=2, roton critical points in the spin inter--Landau level mode show a pronounced softening as r_s is increased. Instead of a soft mode instability predicted by Hartree--Fock calculations for r_s ~ 3.3, we find evidence of multiple rotons in the dispersion of the softening spin excitations. Extrapolation of the data indicates the possibility of an instability for r_s >~ 11.

While it has been recently demonstrated that, for quasi-2D electron gas (Q2DEG) with one filled miniband, the dynamic exchange $f_x$ and Hartree $f_H$ kernels cancel each other in the low-density regime $r_srightarrow infty$ (by half and completely, for the spin-neutral and fully spin-polarized cases, respectively), here we analytically show that the same happens at arbitrary densities at short distances. This motivates us to study the confinement dependence of the excitations in Q2DEG. Our calculations unambiguously confirm that, at strong confinements, the time-dependent exact exchange excitation energies approach the single-particle Kohn-Sham ones for the spin-polarized case, while the same, but less pronounced, tendency is observed for spin-neutral Q2DEG.
Magnetic field suppression of the tunneling between disordered 2D electron systems in GaAs around zero bias voltage has been studied. Magnetic field B normal to the layers induces a dip in the tunneling density of states (TDOS) centered precisely at the Fermi level, i.e. soft tunneling gap. The soft gap has a linear form with finite TDOS diminishing with B at the Fermi level. Driven by magnetic field the transition soft-hard gap has been observed, i.e. the TDOS vanishes in the finite energy window around Fermi level at B>13 T.
Electron-beam propagation experiments have been used to determine the energy and angle dependence of electron-electron (ee) scattering a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in a very direct manner by a new spectroscopy method. The experimental results are in good agreement with recent theories and provide direct evidence for the differences between ee-scattering in a 2DEG as compared with 3D systems. Most conspicuous is the increased importance of small-angle scattering in a 2D system, resulting in a reduced (but energy-dependent) broadening of the electron beam.
The excitations of a two-dimensional electron gas in quantum wells with intermediate carrier density (~10^{11} cm^{-2}), i.e., between the exciton-trion- and the Fermi-Sea range, are so far poorly understood. We report on an approach to bridge this gap by a magneto-photoluminescence study of modulation-doped (Cd,Mn)Te quantum well structures. Employing their enhanced spin splitting, we analyzed the characteristic magnetic-field behavior of the individual photoluminescence features. Based on these results and earlier findings by other authors, we present a new approach for understanding the optical transitions at intermediate densities in terms of four-particle excitations, the Suris tetrons, which were up to now only predicted theoretically. All characteristic photoluminescence features are attributed to emission from these quasi-particles when attaining different final states.
We propose a pump-probe set-up to analyse the properties of the collective excitation spectrum of a spinor polariton fluid. By using a linear response approximation scheme, we carry on a complete classification of all excitation spectra, as well as their intrinsic degree of polarisation, in terms of two experimentally tunable parameters only, the mean-field polarisation angle and a rescaled pump detuning. We evaluate the system response to the external probe, and show that the transmitted light can undergo a spin rotation along the dispersion for spectra that we classify as diffusive-like. We show that in this case, the spin flip predicted along the dispersion is enhanced when the system is close to a parametrically amplified instability.
