Research Abstract |
Spin-polarized surface states of heavy-element-atoms adsorbed semiconductor substrates have been studied. A monolayer Pb adsorbed Ge(111) surface exhibits two-dimensional electronic states localized in subsurface layers of a Ge(111) substrate. In addition, the surface-state bands are split into two due to the Rashba effect. For Pt-induced nanowires formed on Ge(001) surface, we found several one-dimensional metallic bands. One of the metallic bands is accurately one-dimensional and behaves as the Fermi gas. In addition, another quasi-one-dimensional metallic band shows the Rashba-type spin splitting. These results are essential to a new scientific field such as surface spin transport, filtering and injection into semiconductors.
