We study the electron spin relaxation in both symmetric and asymmetric GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wells (QWs) grown on (110) substrates in an external magnetic field B applied along the QW normal. The spin polarization is induced by circularly polarized light and detected by time-resolved Kerr rotation technique. In the asymmetric structure, where a {delta}-doped layer on one side of the QW produces the Rashba contribution to the conduction-band spin-orbit splitting, the lifetime of electron spins aligned along the growth axis exhibits an anomalous dependence on B in the range 0<B<0.5 T; this results from the interplay between the Dresselhaus and Rashba effective fields which are perpendicular to each other. For larger magnetic fields, the spin lifetime increases, which is the consequence of the cyclotron motion of the electrons and is also observed in (001)-grown quantum wells. The experimental results are in agreement with the calculation of the spin lifetimes in (110)- grown asymmetric quantum wells described by the point group Cs where the growth direction is not the principal axis of the spin-relaxation-rate tensor.
The electron spin dynamics is studied by time-resolved Kerr rotation in GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wells embedded in a negatively doped-intrinsic-positively doped structures grown on (111)A or (111)B-oriented substrates. In both cases the spin lifetimes are
Low-temperature illumination of a two-dimensional electron gas in GaAs quantum wells is known to greatly improve the quality of high-field magnetotransport. The improvement is known to occur even when the carrier density and mobility remain unchanged
We show that for lattice-mismatched zinc-blende-type (110)-grown quantum wells a significant contribution to the zero-magnetic-field spin splitting of electron subbands comes from strain-induced spin-orbit coupling. Combining envelope function theory
The low-temperature($4.2<T<12.5$ K) magnetotransport ($B<2$ T) of two-dimensional electrons occupying two subbands (with energy $E_1$ and $E_2$) is investigated in GaAs single quantum well with AlAs/GaAs superlattice barriers. Two series of Shubnikov
Anomalous spin Hall effects that belong to the intrinsic type in Dresselhaus (110) quantum wells are discussed. For the out-of-plane spin component, antisymmetric current-induced spin polarization induces opposite spin Hall accumulation, even though
