hole gas
- Authors: Rui Li and Xin-Yu Qi
- Abstract summary: We show that strong spin'-orbit coupled one-dimensional hole gas can be accurately described by an effective two-band Hamiltonian $Hrm ef=hbar2k2_z/ (2m*_h)+alphasigmazk_z+g*_hmu_BBsigmax/2$, as long as the magnetic field is purely longitudinal or purely transverse.

- Abstract: Strong `spin'-orbit coupled one-dimensional hole gas is achievable in an
unstrained Ge nanowire in the presence of a strong magnetic field. Basing on
the Luttinger-Kohn Hamiltonian in the spherical approximation, we show this
strong `spin'-orbit coupled one-dimensional hole gas can be accurately
described by an effective two-band Hamiltonian $H^{\rm
ef}=\hbar^{2}k^{2}_{z}/(2m^{*}_{h})+\alpha\sigma^{z}k_{z}+g^{*}_{h}\mu_{B}B\sigma^{x}/2$,
as long as the magnetic field is purely longitudinal or purely transverse. The
explicit magnetic field dependent expressions of the `spin'-orbit coupling
$\alpha\equiv\alpha(B)$ and the effective $g$-factor
$g^{*}_{h}\equiv\,g^{*}_{h}(B)$ are given. When the magnetic field is applied
in an arbitrary direction, the two-band Hamiltonian description is still a good
approximation.
