Phys. Rev. Lett. 77, 2053–2056 (1996)Conduction-Valence Landau Level Mixing EffectReceived 16 January 1996; published in the issue dated 2 September 1996 The electronic Landau level structures of the symmetric Alsb-AlxGa1-xSb-InAs-AlxGa1-xSb-AlSb quantum wells are investigated within a six-band k̇p finite difference method. We demonstrated that the conduction-valence Landau level mixing can yield a significant spin splitting for the InAs conduction-band electrons and therefore produce a prominent electron double-line structure with a nearly field-independent energy separation in the cyclotron-resonance spectra. This mixing effect can also yield strong oscillations in the electron cyclotron-resonance mass, amplitude, and linewidth. © 1996 The American Physical Society URL:
