Local g factors, cyclotron effective masses, and cyclotron-orbit g factors (g, ) for rhodium, palladium, iridium, and platinum have been calculated using a relativistic linear muffin-tin orbital method, including perturbation of a magnetic field. These calculations are compared with experimental results from de Haasvan Alphen measurements. Both measurements and calculations give an anisotropic g, factor for the I -centered electron sheet and the X pocket while they give a rather isotropic one for the o. orbit existing on the open-hole sheet. This indicates that the spin-orbit coupling is a major source of the anisotropic behavior of the g, factor in these metals.
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.
