Measuring hole g-factor anisotropies using transverse magnetic focusing

Recent theoretical and experimental results from quasi-one dimensional heavy hole systems have suggested that heavy hole gases have a strongly anisotropic g factor. In this theoretical paper, we propose a method for measuring this anisotropy using transverse magnetic focusing (TMF). We demonstrate that for experimentally accessible fields, the g factor anisotropy leads to a relative variation in the characteristic of spin-splitting of the TMF spectrum which allows for the measurement of the anisotropy of the g factor. We show that this variation is insensitive to additional spin-orbit interactions, and is resolvable with current devices.
