Unlike previous studies, we find that the spin and cyclotron splittings become equal over a continuous range of angles, but only near certain, angle-dependent filling factors. At high enough tilt angles, Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations reveal a prominent beating pattern, indicative of consecutive level crossings, all occurring at the same angle. We explain these unusual observations by an in-plane field-induced increase of the carrier mass, which leads to accelerated, filling factor-driven crossings of spin sublevels in tilted magnetic fields.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2012-06-07T20:05:23.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "73.43.Qt", "73.40.-c", "73.63.Hs" ], "keywords": [ "tilted magnetic fields", "gaas quantum wells", "ultra-high mobility gaas/algaas quantum", "shubnikov-de haas oscillations reveal", "high tilt angles" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review B", "year": 2012, "month": "Jun", "volume": 85, "number": 24, "pages": 241305 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2012PhRvB..85x1305H" } } }
