We report an inelastic light scattering study of the cyclotron spin-flip mode in the two-dimensional electron system at filling nu=1. The energy of this mode can serve as a probe of the many-body exchange interaction on short length scales. Its magnetic field dependence is compared with predictions based on Hartree-Fock theory. They agree well when including the nonzero width of the electron system. From the measured energies, the exchange enhanced g factor is extracted. It diverges at small fields and differs largely from g factors obtained via transport activation studies.

Multifunctional, high-efficiency, and active manipulation devices are significant for terahertz (THz) technology and application. In this Letter, a stacked-graphene meta-atom (SGM) structure is investigated, which is composed of periodically patterned graphene in the 2D plane and stacked graphene-dielectric layers perpendicularly to the plane. This structure not only has strong THz artificial anisotropy but also enhances the cyclotron resonance response of graphene to a THz wave under an external magnetic field (EMF).

An experimental technique for the indirect manipulation and detection of electron spins entangled in two-dimensional magnetoexcitons has been developed. The kinetics of the spin relaxation has been investigated. Photoexcited spin-magnetoexcitons were found to exhibit extremely slow relaxation in specific quantum Hall systems, fabricated in high mobility GaAs/AlGaAs structures; namely, the relaxation time reaches values over one hundred microseconds.

One of the fundamental properties of the proton is its magnetic moment, µp. So far µp has been measured only indirectly, by analysing the spectrum of an atomic hydrogen maser in a magnetic field. Here we report the direct high-precision measurement of the magnetic moment of a single proton using the double Penning-trap technique.

We determined the experimental value of the g factor of the electron bound in hydrogenlike ²⁸Si¹³⁺ by using a single ion confined in a cylindrical Penning trap. From the ratio of the ion's cyclotron frequency and the induced spin flip frequency, we obtain g = 1.995 348 958 7(5)(3)(8).
