We have measured, by magnetic resonance, for the first time the g-factor for electrons in the two-dimensional (2D) electron gas of a quantum well using the method of optical pumping. The value of lgel = 5.6 f 0.3 obtained for a single InP/GalnAs lattice-matched quantum well is approximately 70% greater than the
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
