Abstract

Hole states localized at an acceptor in a quantum well formed of a semiconductor with cubic symmetry without spin-orbit coupling (the symmetry {Gamma}{sub 15}) are considered. It is shown that the triply degenerate level is split, and the energies of the levels are calculated as functions of the well width.

Effective bond-orbital model for shallow acceptors in GaAs-Al sub x Ga sub 1 minus x As quantum wells and superlattices

Journal Article Einevoll, G T ; Chang, Y - Physical Review, B: Condensed Matter; (USA)

The novel effective bond-orbital model (EBOM) is used to calculate energies of shallow acceptors in GaAs-Al{sub {ital x}}Ga{sub 1{minus}{ital x}}As quantum wells and superlattices. The model is tight-binding-like, and the interactions between bond orbitals located at sites in the face-centered-cubic lattice are fitted to make EBOM predict the right band structure close to the valence-band edge. Symmetry-adapted functions consisting of proper linear combinations of bond orbitals located at sites in the vicinity of the acceptor impurity are used as basis functions in variational calculations of energies of acceptor states. First, we calculate energies of both {Gamma}{sub 6} (heavy-hole) and {Gamma}{submore »« less

The higher excited electronic states and spin-orbit splitting of the valence band in three-dimensional assemblies of close-packed ZnSe and CdSe quantum dots in thin film form

Journal Article Pejova, Biljana - Journal of Solid State Chemistry

Optical properties of as-deposited and annealed thin films composed of three-dimensional arrays of sphalerite-type ZnSe and CdSe quantum dots (QDs), synthesized by chemical deposition, were investigated. Neglecting the S-D mixing of hole states, the lowest 'band to band' transitions in very small nanoclusters and in bulk-like clusters may be assigned as 1S{yields}1S and 1S{sub {delta}}{yields}1S, and are split by spin-orbit (SO) splitting energy of the bulk material-{delta}. The splitting energy between these transitions was found to be insensitive to QD size variations, which could be explained assuming that 1S hole states arising from valence band {gamma}{sub 7} and {gamma}{sub 8}more »« less

Engineering two-dimensional superconductivity and Rashba spin–orbit coupling in LaAlO ₃/SrTiO ₃ quantum wells by selective orbital occupancy

Journal Article Herranz, Gervasi ; Singh, Gyanendra ; Bergeal, Nicolas ; ... - Nature Communications

The discovery of two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) at oxide interfaces—involving electrons in narrow d-bands—has broken new ground, enabling the access to correlated states that are unreachable in conventional semiconductors based on s- and p- electrons. There is a growing consensus that emerging properties at these novel quantum wells—such as 2D superconductivity and magnetism --are intimately connected to specific orbital symmetries in the 2DEG sub-band structure. Here we show that crystal orientation allows selective orbital occupancy, disclosing unprecedented ways to tailor the 2DEG properties. By carrying out electrostatic gating experiments in LaAlO ₃/SrTiO ₃ wells of different crystal orientations, we showmore »« less

Resonant reflection of interacting electrons from an impurity in a quantum wire: Interplay of Zeeman and spin-orbit effects

Journal Article Malla, Rajesh K. ; Raikh, M. E. - Physical Review B

A single-channel quantum wire with two well-separated Zeeman subbands and in the presence of weak spin-orbit coupling is considered. An impurity level which is split off the upper subband is degenerate with the continuum of the lower subband. We show that, when the Fermi level lies in the vicinity of the impurity level, the transport is completely blocked. This is the manifestation of the effect of resonant reflection and can be viewed as resonant tunneling between left-moving and right-moving electrons via the impurity level. We incorporate electron-electron interactions and study their effect on the shape of the resonant-reflection profile. Furthermore,more »« less

Spin-orbit quantum impurity in a topological magnet

Journal Article Yin, Jia-Xin ; Shumiya, Nana ; Jiang, Yuxiao ; ... - Nature Communications

Quantum states induced by single-atomic impurities are at the frontier of physics and material science. While such states have been reported in high-temperature superconductors and dilute magnetic semiconductors, they are unexplored in topological magnets which can feature spin-orbit tunability. Here we use spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/S) to study the engineered quantum impurity in a topological magnet Co ₃Sn ₂S ₂. We find that each substituted In impurity introduces a striking localized bound state. Our systematic magnetization-polarized probe reveals that this bound state is spin-down polarized, in lock with a negative orbital magnetization. Moreover, the magnetic bound states of neighboringmore »« less
