We identify a sizable non-linear anomalous Hall effect in the electrical response of spin-3/2 heavy holes in zincblende semiconductor nanostructures. The response is driven by a quadrupole interaction with the electric field enabled by T d -symmetry. This interaction, until recently believed to be negligible, reflects inversion symmetry breaking and in two dimensions results in an electricfield dependent correction to the in-plane g-factor. The effect can be observed in state-of-the-art heterostructures, either via magnetic doping or by using a vector magnet, where even for small perpendicular magnetic fields it is comparable in magnitude to topological materials.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
