We notice that for low densities the depopulation value ¯γd , for which pmin = 1, is considerably increased by exchange.
Exchange energy and generalized polarization in the presence of spin-orbit coupling in two dimensions
Spin polarization experiments have recently been performed on GaAs two dimensional hole systems with growth direction along [113] and [100].6 In these studies, the magnitude of the in-plane depopulation field Bd , when only one band is occupied, is surmised from the measured longitudinal magneto-resistance.
Exchange energy and generalized polarization in the presence of spin-orbit coupling in two dimensions
For the density under consideration the depopulation field is approximately given by Bd ≃ 10 T along x and Bd ≃ 5 T along y .
Exchange energy and generalized polarization in the presence of spin-orbit coupling in two dimensions
For the [100] growth direction, the Zeeman term (A.7) is vanishing, and the depopulation magnetic field is approximately Bd ≃ 10 T.
