✦ Synopsis
We have confirmed by analyzing beating patterns of Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations that a spin-orbit interaction of the conduction band in an InAs-inserted In Ga As/In Al As heterostructure can be controlled by applying the gate voltage. The change in the spin-orbit interaction can be attributed to the Rashba term. Comparison with an In Ga As/In Al As heterostructure reveals that the spin-orbit interaction in the InAs-inserted system is more sensitive to the carrier concentration.

We have investigated the influence of the quantum well (QW) thickness for the gate controlled Rashba spin orbit interaction (SOI) in InP/In 0.8 Ga 0.2 As/In 0.52 Al 0.48 As asymmetric QWs from the analysis of the weak antilocalization. We prepared two different samples with 5 and 10 nm In 0.8 Ga 0.2
