Growth of monolayer graphene on 8deg off-axis 4H-SiC (000-1) substrates with application to quantum transport devices

Using high temperature annealing conditions with a graphite cap covering the C-face of an 8deg off-axis 4H-SiC sample, large and homogeneous single epitaxial graphene layers have been grown. Raman spectroscopy shows evidence of the almost free-standing character of these monolayer graphene sheets, which was confirmed by magneto-transport measurements. We find a moderate p-type doping, high carrier mobility and half integer Quantum Hall effect typical of high quality graphene samples. This opens the way to a fully compatible integration of graphene with SiC devices on the wafers that constitute the standard in today's SiC industry.

Anti-crossings of spin-split Landau levels in an InAs two-dimensional electron gas with spin-orbit coupling

We report tilted-field transport measurements in the quantum-Hall regime in an InAs/In_0.75Ga_0.25As/In_0.75Al_0.25As quantum well. We observe anti-crossings of spin-split Landau levels, which suggest a mixing of spin states at Landau level coincidence. We propose that the level repulsion is due to the presence of spin-orbit and of band-non-parabolicity terms which are relevant in narrow-gap systems. Furthermore, electron-electron interaction is significant in our structure, as demonstrated by the large values of the interaction-induced enhancement of the electronic g-factor.

Magneto-transport in high g-factor, low-density two-dimensional electron systems confined in In_0.75Ga_0.25As/In_0.75Al_0.25As quantum wells

We report magneto-transport measurements on high-mobility two-dimensional electron systems (2DESs) confined in In_0.75Ga_0.25As/In_0.75Al_0.25As single quantum wells. Several quantum Hall states are observed in a wide range of temperatures and electron densities, the latter controlled by a gate voltage down to values of 1.10^11 cm^-2. A tilted-field configuration is used to induce Landau level crossings and magnetic transitions between quantum Hall states with different spin polarizations. A large filling factor dependent effective electronic g-factor is determined by the coincidence method and cyclotron resonance measurements. From these measurements the change in exchange-correlation energy at the magnetic transition is deduced. These results demonstrate the impact of many-body effects in tilted-field magneto-transport of high-mobility 2DESs confined in In_0.75Ga_0.25As/In_0.75Al_0.25As quantum wells. The large tunability of electron density and effective g-factor, in addition, make this material system a promising candidate for the observation of a large variety of spin-related phenomena.
