摘要:

利用自旋和角度分辨光电子能谱研究了Si(111)上Pb量子阱态的动量区,在该动量区,Rashba分裂带间的杂化显著改变了能带结构.从Rashba制度的准自由的二维电子气的色散是很好地描述了两个自旋极化抛物线,我们发现的Rashba行为,表现在(i)在自旋分裂,不再是成比例的面内动量和(ii)在反转的动量分裂的符号的崩溃。我们的实验结果很好地解释了带间自旋轨道耦合,混合Rashba分裂状态与反平行,而不是平行的自旋。Pb/Cu(111)的类似结果表明,所提出的杂化方案与支撑基底无关。

英文摘要:

Using spin and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy we investigate a momentum region in Pb quantum well states on Si(111) where hybridization between Rashba-split bands alters the band structure significantly. Starting from the Rashba regime where the dispersion of the quasi-free two-dimensional electron gas is well described by two spin-polarized parabolas, we find a breakdown of the Rashba behavior which manifests itself (i) in a spin splitting that is no longer proportional to the in-plane momentum and (ii) in a reversal of the sign of the momentum splitting. Our experimental findings are well explained by including interband spin-orbit coupling that mixes Rashba-split states with anti-parallel rather than parallel spins. Similar results for Pb/Cu(111) reveal that the proposed hybridization scenario is independent on the supporting substrate.
