Oscillatory effects and the magnetic susceptibility of carriers in inversion layers

Abstract

Oscillatory effects in a strong magnetic field B and magnetic susceptibility are investigated, as applied to 2D systems, in which the twofold spin degeneracy is lifted by the spin-orbit-interaction Hamiltonian HSO= alpha ( sigma *k). nu . The term HSO is shown to change greatly the usual patterns of B-1-periodic oscillations; some oscillations are strongly suppressed due to the diminishing of the gaps between adjacent levels, and new oscillations appear due to intersections of levels.
