Anomalous spin-splitting of two-dimensional electrons in an AlAs Quantum Well

arXiv:cond-mat/9808158 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.59.R12743

Abstract

We measure the effective Lande g-factor of high-mobility two-dimensional electrons in a modulation-doped AlAs quantum well by tilting the sample in a magnetic field and monitoring the evolution of the magnetoresistance oscillations. The data reveal that |g| = 9.0, which is much enhanced with respect to the reported bulk value of 1.9. Surprisingly, in a large range of magnetic field and Landau level fillings, the value of the enhanced g-factor appears to be constant.
