In-Plane Magnetic Field Induced Anisotropy of 2D Fermi Contours and the Field Dependent Cyclotron Mass

Abstract
The electronic structure of a 2D gas subjected to a tilted magnetic field, with a strong component parallel to the GaAs/AlGaAs interface and a weak component oriented perpendicularly, is studied theoretically. It is shown that the parallel field component modifies the originally circular shape of a Fermi contour while the perpendicular component drive an electron by the Lorentz force along a Fermi line with a cyclotron frequency given by its shape. The corresponding cyclotron effective mass is calculated self-consistently for several concentrations of 2D carriers as a function of the in-plane magnetic field. The possibility to detect its field-induced deviations from the zero field value experimentally is discussed.
