Current-induced nuclear-spin activation in a two-dimensional electron gas
Electrically detected nuclear magnetic resonance was studied in detail in a
two-dimensional electron gas as a function of current bias and temperature. We
show that applying a relatively modest dc-current bias, I_dc ~ 0.5 microAmps,
can induce a re-entrant and even enhanced nuclear spin signal compared with the
signal obtained under similar thermal equilibrium conditions at zero current
bias. Our observations suggest that dynamic nuclear spin polarization by small
current flow is possible in a two-dimensional electron gas, allowing for easy
manipulation of the nuclear spin by simple switching of a dc current.Comment: 5 pages, 3 fig
Imaging Transport Resonances in the Quantum Hall Effect
We use a scanning capacitance probe to image transport in the quantum Hall
system. Applying a DC bias voltage to the tip induces a ring-shaped
incompressible strip (IS) in the 2D electron system (2DES) that moves with the
tip. At certain tip positions, short-range disorder in the 2DES creates a
quantum dot island in the IS. These islands enable resonant tunneling across
the IS, enhancing its conductance by more than four orders of magnitude. The
images provide a quantitative measure of disorder and suggest resonant
tunneling as the primary mechanism for transport across ISs.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures, submitted to PRL. For movies and additional
