Abstract
The quantum lifetime of two-dimensional holes in a GaAs/AlGaAs double quantum well is determined via tunneling spectroscopy. At low temperatures the lifetime is limited by impurity scattering but at higher temperatures hole-hole Coulomb scattering dominates. Our results are consistent with Fermi liquid theory, at least up to r_s = 11. At the highest temperatures the measured width of the hole spectral function becomes comparable to the Fermi energy. A new, tunneling-spectroscopic, method for determining the in-plane effective mass of the holes is also demonstrated.
