Spin-orbit-assisted electron-phonon interaction and the magnetophonon resonance in semiconductor quantum wells
arXiv:0707.0342 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.77.035317
Abstract
We introduce a spin-orbit assisted electron-phonon (e-ph) coupling mechanism for carriers in semiconductor quantum wells and predict qualitatively the form and shape of anticrossings between the cyclotron resonance (CR) and optical (LO and TO) phonons. Since this e-ph interaction involves the electron spin it makes the predicted TO-CR anticrossing dependent on the filling factor and therefore on the polarization of the 2D electron gas in the quantum well.
