g-Factor Modification in a Bulk InGaAs Epilayer by an In-plane Electric Field

preprint2015arXivOpen access

Abstract

We report on the modification of the g-factor by an in-plane electric field in an In0.031_{0.031}Ga0.969_{0.969}As epilayer. We performed external magnetic field scans of the Kerr rotation of the InGaAs film in order to independently determine the g-factor and the spin-orbit fields. The g-factor increases from −0.4473±0.0001-0.4473\pm0.0001 at 0 V/cm to −0.4419±0.0001-0.4419\pm0.0001 at 25 V/cm applied along the [11‾\overline{1}0] crystal axis. In addition, spatially-resolved spin measurements show a g-factor dependence on diffusive velocity. The change in g-factor with electric field can have a large effect on the determination of the internal spin-orbit and nuclear fields from Larmor precession frequency measurements.
