We report measurements of the effective $g$ factor of low-density two-dimensional holes in a Ge quantum well. Using the temperature dependence of the Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations, we extract the effective $g$ factor in a magnetic field perpendicular to the sample surface. Very large values of the effective $g$ factor, ranging from $sim13$ to $sim28$, are observed in the density range of $1.4times10^{10}$ cm$^{-2}$ to $1.4times10^{11}$ cm$^{-2}$. When the magnetic field is oriented parallel to the sample surface, the effective $g$ factor is obtained from a protrusion in the magneto-resistance data that signifies full spin polarization. In the latter orientation, a small effective $g$ factor, $sim1.3-1.4$, is measured in the density range of $1.5times10^{10}$ cm$^{-2}$ to $2times10^{10}$ cm$^{-2}$. This very strong anisotropy is consistent with theoretical predictions and previous measurements in other 2D hole systems, such as InGaAs and GaSb.

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.
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 report experimental evidence of ballistic hole transport in one-dimensional quantum wires gate-defined in a strained SiGe/Ge/SiGe quantum well. At zero magnetic field, we observe conductance plateaus at integer multiples of 2e^2/h. At finite magne tic field, the splitting of these plateaus by Zeeman effect reveals largely anisotropic g-factors, with absolute values below 1 in the quantum-well plane, and exceeding 10 out of plane. This g-factor anisotropy is consistent with a heavy-hole character of the propagating valence-band states, in line with a predominant confinement in the growth direction. Remarkably, we observe quantized ballistic conductance in device channels up to 600 nm long. These findings mark an important step towards the realization of novel devices for applications in quantum spintronics.

Holes in nanowires have drawn significant attention in recent years because of the strong spin-orbit interaction, which plays an important role in constructing Majorana zero modes and manipulating spin-orbit qubits. Here, from the strongly anisotropi c leakage current in the spin blockade regime for a double dot, we extract the full g-tensor and find that the spin-orbit field is in plane with an azimuthal angle of 59{deg} to the axis of the nanowire. The direction of the spin-orbit field indicates a strong spin-orbit interaction along the nanowire, which may have originated from the interface inversion asymmetry in Ge hut wires. We also demonstrate two different spin relaxation mechanisms for the holes in the Ge hut wire double dot: spin-flip cotunneling to the leads, and spin-orbit interaction within the double dot. These results help establish feasibility of a Ge-based quantum processor.

Due to its p-like character, the valence band in GaAs-based heterostructures offers rich and complex spin-dependent phenomena. One manifestation is the large anisotropy of Zeeman spin splitting. Using undoped, coupled quantum wells (QWs), we examine this anisotropy by comparing the hole spin dynamics for high- and low-symmetry crystallographic orientations of the QWs. We directly measure the hole $g$ factor via time-resolved Kerr rotation, and for the low-symmetry crystallographic orientations (110) and (113a), we observe a large in-plane anisotropy of the hole $g$ factor, in good agreement with our theoretical calculations. Using resonant spin amplification, we also observe an anisotropy of the hole spin dephasing in the (110)-grown structure, indicating that crystal symmetry may be used to control hole spin dynamics.
