We present a study of the magnetoreflectivity of pyrolytic graphite in fields up to 8 T. Circularly polarized radiation at fixed laser frequencies in the energy range 3 -16 meV was used. In addition to the usual intraband (cyclotron resonance) transitions, we observe transitions from the special central and leg electron levels first predicted by Dresselhaus. The Geld positions of the resonances are compared to those resulting from the detailed theoretical calculation of Nakao. Excellent agreement is obtained for the value of the trigonal warping parameter y, equal to 0.315+0. 015 eV.
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.
