We report on the observation of the giant spin-polarized photocurrent in HgTe/HgCdTe quantum well (QW) of critical thickness at which a Dirac spectrum emerges. Exciting QW of 6.6 nm width by terahertz (THz) radiation and sweeping magnetic field we detected a resonant photocurrent. Remarkably, the position of the resonance can be tuned from negative (-0.4 T) to positive (up to 1.2 T) magnetic fields by means of optical gating. The photocurent data, accompanied by measurements of radiation transmission as well as Shubnikov-de Haas and quantum Hall effects, give an evidence that the enhancement of the photocurrent is caused by cyclotron resonance in a Dirac fermion system. The developed theory shows that the current is spin polarized and originates from the spin dependent scattering of charge carriers heated by the radiation.

We report on Landau level spectroscopy studies of two HgTe quantum wells (QWs) near or at the critical well thickness, where the band gap vanishes. In magnetic fields up to $B$=16T, oriented perpendicular to the QW plane, we observe a $sqrt{B}$ depen
dence for the energy of the dominant cyclotron resonance (CR) transition characteristic of two-dimensional Dirac fermions. The dominant CR line exhibits either a single or double absorption lineshape for the gapless or gapped QW. Using an effective Dirac model, we deduce the band velocity of single valley Dirac fermions in gapless HgTe quantum wells, $v_F=6.4 times10^5$ m/s, and interpret the double absorption of the gapped QW as resulting from the addition of a small relativistic mass.
We present a method to create spin-polarized beams of ballistic electrons in a two-dimensional electron system in the presence of spin-orbit interaction. Scattering of a spin-unpolarized injected beam from a lithographic barrier leads to the creation
of two fully spin-polarized side beams, in addition to an unpolarized specularly reflected beam. Experimental magnetotransport data on InSb/InAlSb heterostructures demonstrate the spin-polarized reflection in a mesoscopic geometry, and confirm our theoretical predictions.
Accurate determination of carrier densities in ferromagnetic semiconductors by Hall measurements is hindered by the anomalous Hall effect, and thus alternative methods are being sought. Here, we propose that cyclotron resonance (CR) is an excellent m
ethod for carrier density determination for InMnAs-based magnetic structures. We develop a theory for electronic and magneto-optical properties in narrow gap InMnAs films and superlattices in ultrahigh magnetic fields oriented along [001]. In n-type InMnAs films and superlattices, we find that the e-active CR peak field is pinned at low electron densities and then begins to shift rapidly to higher fields above a critical electron concentration allowing the electron density to be accurately calibrated. In p-type InMnAs, we observe two h-active CR peaks due to heavy and light holes. The lineshapes depend on temperature and line broadening. The light hole CR requires higher hole densities and fields. Analyzing CR lineshapes in p-films and superlattices can help determine hole densities.
For high-mobility two-dimensional electrons at a GaAs/AlGaAs heterojunction, we have studied, both experimentally and theoretically, the recently discovered giant magnetoresistance oscillations with nearly zero resistance in the oscillation minima wh
ich appear under microwave radiation. We have proposed a model based on nonequilibrium occupation of Landau levels caused by radiation which describes the oscillation picture.
We report the observation of hole cyclotron resonance (CR) in InMnAs/(Al,Ga)Sb heterostructures in a wide temperature range covering both the paramagnetic and ferromagnetic phases. We observed two pronounced resonances that exhibit drastic changes in
position, linewidth, and intensity at a temperature higher than the Curie temperature, indicating possible local magnetic ordering or clustering. We attribute the two resonances to the fundamental CR transitions expected for delocalized valence-band holes in the quantum limt. Using an 8-band {bf k$cdot$p} model, which incorporates ferromagnetism within a mean-field approximation, we show that the temperature-dependent CR peak shift is a direct measure of the carrier-Mn exchange interaction. Significant line narrowing was observed at low temperatures, which we interpret as the suppression of localized spin fluctuations.
