摘要
In zero magnetic field, conductance measurements of clean one-dimensional (1D) constrictions defined in GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructures show twenty-six quantized ballistic plateaux, as well as a structure close to . In an in-plane magnetic field all the 1D subbands show Zeeman splitting and in the wide channel limit the -factor is , close to that of bulk GaAs. For the last subband spin-splitting originates from the structure at , indicating spin polarization at . The measured enhancement of the -factor as the subbands are depopulated suggests that the ``0.7 structure'' is induced by electron-electron interactions.
