Magnetoconductance in Bi quantum well states: coupling of interfaces — •Doaa Abdelbarey and Herbert Pfnür — Institut für Festkörperphysik, Leibniz Universität Hannover

Ultrathin epitaxial Bi films are governed by strongly spin-polarized bands that determine to a large extent their magneto-transport properties. Magneto-conductance of films grown epitaxially on Si(111) with a thickness of 10 to 100 bilayers (BL) was measured mostly at T= 8 K in magnetic fields up to 4T and with orientations both perpendicular and parallel to the surface plane. For B-fields normal to the surface weak anti-localization (WAL) was observed. Analysis within the theory by Hikami et al. [1] indicates strong coupling of the interfaces up to 50 BL, whereas above 80 BL two independently conducting channels were observed. For the in-plane B-field orientation, the magneto conductivity turned out to be anisotropic. Whereas for in-plane B-fields parallel to the current direction and for films up to 70 BL mainly weak localization is seen, it switches to WAL for larger thicknesses. For in-plane B-fields perpendicular to the current only WAL was observed irrespective of thickness. Both curves merge close to 100 BL, i.e. WAL becomes independent of B-field direction. These phenomena are explained within the framework of interface scattering, including superimposed effects of band structure and spin polarization due to the Rashba effect.
