We measure the effective mass (m*) of interacting two-dimensional electrons confined to a 4.5 nm-wide AlAs quantum well. The electrons in this well occupy a single out-of-plane conduction band valley with an isotropic in-plane Fermi contour. When the electrons are partially spin polarized, m* is larger than its band value and increases as the density is reduced. However, as the system is driven to full spin-polarization via the application of a strong parallel magnetic field, m* is suppressed down to values near or even below the band mass. Our results are consistent with the previously reported measurements on wide AlAs quantum wells where the electrons occupy an in-plane valley with an anisotropic Fermi contour and effective mass, and suggest that the effective mass suppression upon complete spin polarization is a genuine property of interacting two-dimensional electrons.
We present numerical calculations of the electron effective mass in an interacting, ferromagnetic, two-dimensional electron system. We consider quantum interaction effects associated with the charge-density fluctuation induced many-body vertex correc
We report direct measurements of the valley susceptibility, the change of valley population in response to applied symmetry-breaking strain, in an AlAs two-dimensional electron system. As the two-dimensional density is reduced, the valley susceptibil
A magnetotransport study in magnetically doped (Cd,Mn)Te 2D quantum wells reveals an apparent metal-insulator transition as well as an anomalous intermediate phase just on its metallic side. This phase is characterized by colossal magnetoresistance-l
A Dirac electron system in solids mimics a relativistic quantum physics that is compatible with Maxwells equations, by which we anticipate unified electromagnetic responses. We find a large orbital diamagnetism only along the interplane direction and
Current-induced spin polarization (CISP) is rederived in ballistic spin-orbit-coupled electron systems, based on equilibrium statistical mechanics. A simple and useful picture is correspondingly proposed to help understand the CISP and predict the po
