We show that free-carrier absorption of linearly or circularly polarized terahertz radiation in low-dimensional structures causes an electric photocurrent in the presence of an in-plane magnetic field. Microscopic mechanisms of these photocurrents based on spin-related phenomena are discussed. Properties of the magneto-gyrotropic and spin-galvanic effects specific for hexagonal heterostructures are analyzed.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2007-09-27T08:41:51.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "magneto-gyrotropic photogalvanic effects", "gan/algan two-dimensional systems", "spin-galvanic effects specific", "in-plane magnetic field", "free-carrier absorption" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "journal": "Solid State Communications", "year": 2008, "month": "Jan", "volume": 145, "number": 1, "pages": 56 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008SSCom.145...56W" } } }
