Abstract

Shubnikov-de Haas and cyclotron resonance results are presented for GaInAs-AlInAs heterojunctions in both perpendicular and tilted magnetic fields. Two electric subbands are occupied in zero magnetic field. Magnetic depopulation of the higher (E 1 ) subband is observed in both perpendicular and tilted orientations. This enables a demonstration of the importance of intersubband scattering in both resistivity and cyclotron resonance. A shift of the relative positions of the E o and E 1 subbands by parallel magnetic fields is measured to be 0.26 meV/T 2 . © 1982.
