自旋分裂带中载流子的磁聚焦:Zitterbewegung效应的半经典

Magnetic focusing of charge carriers from spin-split bands: Semiclassics of a Zitterbewegung effect

U. Zuelicke, J. Bolte, R. Winkler

摘要:

本文从理论上研究了固体中载流子的回旋运动与自旋分裂之间的相互作用。虽然我们的许多结果适用于更普遍的,我们特别侧重于讨论Rashba模型描述的电子在非对称半导体异质结构的导带。适当的半经典极限的区别,描述各种情况下的实验兴趣。我们的分析公式,充分考虑塞曼分裂,用于分析最近的磁聚焦数据。令人惊讶的是,事实证明,即使当Rashba和Zeeman自旋分裂能量处于相同的量级时,Rashba效应也可以主导回旋加速器轨道的分裂。我们还发现,自旋相关的回旋运动的起源可以追溯到Zitterbewegung类振荡动力学的载流子从自旋分裂带。讨论了这两种现象之间的关系,并估计了Zitterbewegung相关修正对载流子正则位置的影响。

英文摘要:

We present a theoretical study of the interplay between cyclotron motion and spin splitting of charge carriers in solids. While many of our results apply more generally, we focus especially on discussing the Rashba model describing electrons in the conduction band of asymmetric semiconductor heterostructures. Appropriate semiclassical limits are distinguished that describe various situations of experimental interest. Our analytical fomulae, which take full account of Zeeman splitting, are used to analyse recent magnetic-focusing data. Surprisingly, it turns out that the Rashba effect can dominate the splitting of cyclotron orbits even when the Rashba and Zeeman spin-splitting energies are of the same order. We also find that the origin of spin-dependent cyclotron motion can be traced back to Zitterbewegung-like oscillatory dynamics of charge carriers from spin-split bands. The relation between the two phenomena is discussed, and we estimate the effect of Zitterbewegung-related corrections to the charge carriers' canonical position.
