The research was performed in the temperature range of 0.3-2 K and in the magnetic fields of up to 18 T, parallel or tilted with respect to the two-dimensional (2D) channel plane. The large in-plane magnetoresistance can be explained by the influence of the \\textit{in-plane} magnetic field on the orbital motion of the charge carriers in the quasi-2D system. The measurements of $\\rho_{xx}$ and $\\rho_{xy}$ in the tilted magnetic field showed that the anomaly in $\\rho_{xx}$, observed at filling factor $\\nu$=3/2 is practically nonexistent in the conductivity $\\sigma_{xx}$. The anomaly in $\\sigma_{xx}$ at $\\nu$=2 might be explained by overlapping of the levels with different spins 0$\\uparrow$ and 1$\\downarrow$ when the tilt angle of the applied magnetic field is changed. The dependence of g-factor $g^*(\\Theta)/g^*(0^0)$ on the tilt angle $\\Theta$ was determined.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-10-15T10:33:44.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "tilted magnetic field", "tilt angle", "large in-plane magnetoresistance", "low carrier concentrations", "orbital motion" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1002/andp.200910380", "journal": "Annalen der Physik", "year": 2009, "month": "Dec", "volume": 521, "number": 12, "pages": 939 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009AnP...521..939D" } } }
