The cross-over from quasi-two- to quasi-one-dimensional electron transport is studied in dependence of transverse electric fields and perpendicular magnetic fields, both in the diffusive to quasi-ballistic and in the zero-field to quantum Hall regime. Hall-bars and in-plane gates have been fabricated from an InGaAs/InAlAs/InAs quantum well hosting a 2DEG. Magnetotransport measurements at temperatures down to 50 mK and fields up to 12 T show a high effective Lande-factor of |g*| = 16, allowing to resolve spin-split subbands at magnetic fields of 2.5 T. In the quantum Hall regime, electrostatic change of the effective constriction width enables control of the reflection and transmission of edge channels, allowing to separate fully spin-polarized edge channels at filling factors ν = 1 und ν = 2. A change in the orientation of a transverse in-plane electric field in the constriction shifts the transition between Zeeman-split quantum Hall plateaus by ΔB ≈ 0.1 T and is consistent with an effective magnetic field of Beff ≈ 0.13 T by spin-dependent backscattering, indicating a change in the spin-split density of states.
