The results of experimental studies of the Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) efect in the (013)-HgTe/Hg$_{1-x}$Cd$_x$Te quantum wells (QWs) of electron type of conductivity both with normal and inverted energy spectrum are reported. Comprehensive analysis of the SdH oscillations measured for the different orientations of magnetic field relative to the quantum well plane and crystallographic exes allows us to investigate the anisotropy of the Zeeman effect. For the QWs with inverted spectrum, it has been shown that the ratio of the spin splitting to the orbital one is strongly dependent not only on the orientation of the magnetic field relative to the QW plane but also on the orientation of the in-plane magnetic field component relative to crystallographic axes laying in the QW plane that implies the strong anisotropy of in-plane g-factor. In the QW with normal spectrum, this ratio strongly depends on the angle between the magnetic field and the normal to the QW plane and reveals a very slight anisotropy in the QW plane. To interpret the data, the Landau levels in the tilted magnetic field are calculated within the framework of four-band emph{kP} model. It is shown that the experimental results can be quantitatively described only with taking into account the interface inversion asymmetry.

The effective g-factor of 2D holes in modulation doped mbox{p-SiGe/Ge/SiGe} structures was studied. The AC conductivity of samples with hole densities from $3.9 times 10^{11}$~to $6.2 times 10^{11}~text{cm}^{-2}$ was measured in perpendicular magneti c fields up to $8~text{T}$ using a contactless acoustic method. From the analysis of the temperature dependence of conductivity oscillations, the $mathrm{g}_{perp}$-factor of each sample was determined. The $mathrm{g}_{perp}$-factor was found to be decreasing approximately linearly with hole density. This effect is attributed to non-parabolicity of the valence band.

We report on the observation of the terahertz radiation induced circular (CPGE) and linear (LPGE) photogalvanic effects in HgTe quantum wells. The current response is well described by the phenomenological theory of CPGE and LPGE.
We report on beating appearance in Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations in conduction band of 18-22nm HgTe quantum wells under applied top-gate voltage. Analysis of the beatings reveals two electron concentrations at the Fermi level arising due to Rashba-l ike spin splitting of the first conduction subband H1. The difference dN_s in two concentrations as a function of the gate voltage is qualitatively explained by a proposed toy electrostatic model involving the surface states localized at quantum well interfaces. Experimental values of dN_s are also in a good quantitative agreement with self-consistent calculations of Poisson and Schrodinger equations with eight-band kp Hamiltonian. Our results clearly demonstrate that the large spin splitting of the first conduction subband is caused by surface nature of $H1$ states hybridized with the heavy-hole band.
Recently, lithographic quantum dots in strained-Ge/SiGe have become a promising candidate for quantum computation, with a remarkably quick progression from demonstration of a quantum dot to qubit logic demonstrations. Here we present a measurement of the out-of-plane $g$-factor for single-hole quantum dots in this material. As this is a single-hole measurement, this is the first experimental result that avoids the strong orbital effects present in the out-of-plane configuration. In addition to verifying the expected $g$-factor anisotropy between in-plane and out-of-plane magnetic ($B$)-fields, variations in the $g$-factor dependent on the occupation of the quantum dot are observed. These results are in good agreement with calculations of the $g$-factor using the heavy- and light-hole spaces of the Luttinger Hamiltonian, especially the first two holes, showing a strong spin-orbit coupling and suggesting dramatic $g$-factor tunability through both the $B$-field and the charge state.
We use the two-pulse spin-dependent photon echo technique to study the in-plane hole spin anisotropy in a 20~nm-thick CdTe/Cd$_{0.76}$Mg$_{0.24}$Te single quantum well by exciting the donor-bound exciton resonance. We take advantage of the photon ech o sensitivity to the relative phase of the electron and hole spin precession and study various interactions contributing to the hole in-plane spin properties. The main contribution is found to arise from the crystal cubic symmetry described by the Luttinger parameter $q=0.095$, which is substantially larger than the one theoretically expected for CdTe or found in other quantum well structures. Another contribution is induced by the strain within the quantum well. These two contributions manifest as different harmonics of the spin precession frequencies in the photon echo experiment, when strength and orientation of the Voigt magnetic field are varied. The magnitude of the effective in-plane hole $g$ factor is found to vary in the range $|tilde{g_h}|$=0.125--0.160 in the well plane.
