单层二硫化钼的磁光电导率研究

考虑外加磁场导致的量子化朗道能级以及邻近效应诱导产生的交换作用，采用无规相近似(Random-phase approximation,RPA)下的介电函数对单层二硫化钼(Monolayer molybdenum disulfide,ML-MoS₂)的纵向磁光电导率进行理论研究。探究了磁场、邻近效应诱导产生的交换作用等因素对纵向磁光电导率的影响。在太赫兹(Terahertz,THz)频段，可以看到由导带内电子跃迁所贡献的两个磁光吸收峰。在可见光频段，可以观察到从价带到导带电子跃迁所贡献的多个磁光吸收峰。研究结果表明，邻近效应诱导产生的交换作用和磁场强度对纵向磁光电导率有重要的影响，单层二硫化钼可应用于可见光到太赫兹频段的自旋电子学和谷电子学磁光器件。

量子点接触中的自旋过滤特性

利用可调节自旋过滤器模型,首次计算并讨论了磁场和电子跃迁能量间隔变化对量子点接触结构中自旋电子过滤特性的影响。研究发现,磁场和电子跃迁能量间隔的变化引起了自旋电子隧穿概率和隧穿电导都呈现出量子台阶效应,磁场的增加使电子的回旋频率和电子的Zeeman能级分裂同时加强,从而导致量子点接触结构中的横向约束加强,而自旋过滤效应明显减弱;当磁场一定时,电子跃迁能量间隔越小,电子的自旋过滤效应越明显。电子跃迁能量间隔改变的同时,也改变了鞍形势的势垒形状和自旋过滤的灵敏度。对于不同的材料,同时考虑磁场和电子跃迁能量间隔的作用可以找到自旋过滤器的最佳过滤效果。尤为重要的是过滤器的结构可以用标准的电子束技术很容易得到,所以研究结论为设计新型自旋过滤器提供了理论依据,具有广阔的应用前景和潜在的商业价值。此外,使用朗道因子值较高的材料作自旋过滤器的衬底,可以进一步提高过滤器的性能。

Magnetic flux assisted thermospin transport in a Rashba ring

The electron transport through a Rashba ring with a magnetic flux and driven by a temperature difference is investigated. It is found that the spin interference effect induced by the Rashba spin-orbit interaction and by the magnetic flux can break the balance between the spin-up and spin-down component currents in the thermally driven charge current and thus result in a spin current. The analytical derivation and numerical calculations reveal that the magnitude, sign, peaks and spin-polarization of the generated spin current can be readily modulated by the system parameters. In particular, with some choices of the parameters, the spin polarization of the generated spin current can reach 100%, that is, a fully spin-polarized thermospin current can be produced. These results may help the use of the spin-dependent Seebeck effect to generate and manipulate a spin current.     

Quantum and Transport Mobilities of a Two-Dimensional Electron Gas in the Presence of the Rashba Spin-Orbit Interaction

A systematic theoretical approach is developed to study the electronic and transport properties of a twodimensional electron gas (2DEG) in the presence of spin-orbit interactions induced by the Rashba effect. The standard random-phase approximation is employed to calculate the screening length caused by electron-electron interaction in different transition channels. The quantum and transport mobilities in different spin branches are evaluated using the momentum-balance equation derived from the Boltzmann equation,in which the electron interactions with both the remote and background impurities are taken into account in an InAlAs/InGaAs heterojunction at low-temperatures.

具有Stubs结构量子波导中电子的自旋传输特性

利用递归格林函数法研究了含Rashba自旋轨道耦合效应的具有Stubs结构的量子波导中电子的自旋极化传输特性.结果表明在含一个stub的量子波导系统中, 由于stub和Rashba自旋轨道耦合引起的势阱导致系统电导出现Fano共振形式的“山谷”和“针尖”结构, 通过改变自旋轨道耦合的强度可以调节它们的大小. 同时,在同样的位置自旋极化率也出现Fano共振或反共振结构. 当系统中出现多个周期性的stubs时, 在Fano共振点附近电导中出现一些小的带隙结构.但是,当系统加上磁场后, stubs和自旋轨道耦合带来的效应都被抑制, 系统的电导重新出现量子化台阶结构. 同时由于子带间干涉效应变小, 自旋电导也出现台阶结构.     

Analysis of PTCDA/ITO Surface and Interface Using X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy and Atomic Force Microscopy

利用X射线光电子能谱(XPS)对苝四甲酸二酐[3,4,9,10-perylenetetracarboxylic dianhydride(PTCDA)]/铟锡氧化物(ITO)表面和界面进行了研究.用原子力显微镜(AFM)对PTCDA/ITO样品的表面形貌进行了分析.XPS表明,在原始表面的C1s精细谱存在两个主谱峰和一个伴峰,主谱峰分别由结合能为284.6eV的苝环中的C原子和结合能为288.7eV的酸酐基团中的C原子激发;而结合能为290.4eV的伴峰的存在,说明发生了来源于ITO膜中的氧对C原子的氧化现象.O原子在C=O键和C-O-C键的结合能分别为531.5和533.4eV.在界面处,C1s谱中较高结合能峰消失,且峰值向低结合能方向发生0.2eV的化学位移;O1s谱向低结合能方向发生1.5eV的化学位移.由此可以推断,在界面处PTCDA与ITO的结合是PTCDA中的苝环与ITO中的In空位的结合.AFM的结果显示,PTCDA薄膜为岛状结构,岛的直径约为100～300nm,表面起伏约为14nm.相邻两层PTC-DA分子由于存在离域大π键而交叠和PTCDA分子中的苝环与ITO的In空位的紧密结合是最终导致PTCDA岛状结构形成的原因.     

Mobility spectrum analysis of anisotropic electron transport in N-polar GaN/AlGaN heterostructures on vicinal sapphire substrates

In this work, we present results of a study of anisotropic two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) transport in N-polar GaN/AlGaN heterostructures grown on slightly mis-oriented sapphire substrates. High-resolution mobility spectrum analysis of magnetic-field dependent Hall-effect and resistivity indicate an isotropic 2DEG sheet carrier density, yet significant anisotropy was observed in carrier mobility. A single electron species with a narrow mobility distribution was found to be responsible for conduction parallel to the multi-atomic steps resulting from growth on the vicinal substrates; whilst in the perpendicular direction two distinct electrons peaks are evident at T ? 150 K, which merge near room temperature. The linewidth of the mobility distributions for transport in the perpendicular direction was found to be significantly broader than that of the single electron in the parallel direction. The broader mobility distribution and the lower average mobility for the 2DEG in the perpendicular direction are attributable to interface roughness scattering associated with the GaN/AlGaN interfacial steps.     

The cyclotron resonance in Heterostructures with the InSb/AlInSb quantum wells

The absorption of two-dimensional electrons in InSb-based quantum wells in the quantized magnetic fields in the terahertz spectral region are studied. A p-Ge-based cyclotron laser was used as the radiation source. The effective mass of carriers at the Fermi level equal to 0.0219m ₀ (m ₀ is the mass of a free electron) is determined from the cyclotron resonance spectra. It is shown that the electron spectrum is described by the Kane model in a wide range of magnetic fields. An anomalously pronounced splitting of the cyclotron resonance line not associated with the nonparabolicity of the conduction band of InAs is observed in low magnetic fields, which can be attributed to the effect of the spin-orbit interaction.     

Weak antilocalization and spin-orbit interaction in a In0.53Ga0.47As/InP quantum well in the persistent photoconductivity state

Low-field quantum magnetoresistance of two-dimensional electron gas at the In_0.53Ga_0.47As/InP interface was studied in the persistent photoconductivity state. The sign-alternating property of the dependences of the magnetoresistance on the magnetic field indicates that the spin-orbit interaction affects the quantum well conductivity. The mechanism caused by the electric field built in at the interface was shown to contribute dominantly to the spin-orbit scattering frequency 1/τ_so. This is the Rashba mechanism, which is linear in the electron wave vector. These data allowed us to estimate the parameters of spin-orbit splitting of the energy spectrum as α=(84±10) Ų (by the Rashba mechanism) and γ=(73±5) eV ų (by the Dyakonov-Perel and Dresselhaus mechanisms).
