The spin splitting of wurtzite GaN was calculated by 32×32 Hamiltonian with spin-orbital interaction. The band-folding effect generates two conduction bands ΔC1 and ΔC3 in which the p-wave probability shows a tremendous change when kz approaches the anticrossing zone. We found that a large spin plitting in GaN/AlN quantum wells is produced due to ΔC1-ΔC3 coupling, and is effectively controlled by electric field. Based on the mechanism and gate-controllable spin splitting, we proposed a p-wave-enhanced quantum well, InxGa1-xN/InyAl1-yN, for the application of the spin-polarized field effect transistor designed by Datta and Das [Appl. Phys. Lett. 56, 665 (1990)]. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
