Persistent spin helix (PSH) state induced by Dresselhaus and Rashba spin-orbit interactions (SOIs) in III-V compound semiconductor quantum wells (QWs) is one of the most important states, because the PSH state provides spin manipulation and long spin lifetime simultaneously. Recently, it has been predicted that such PSH states also emerge in QW planes where at least two of the Miller indices agree in the modulus. In particular, the PSH state in a (113)-oriented QW is attractive because it is expected to be a more stable spin state than that in a conventional (001)-oriented QW.
Here we compare the gate-modulated quantum interference effects at 200 mK in (001) and (113) oriented GaAs/AlGaAs QWs. While weak anti-localization (WAL) was consistently observed in (001)-oriented QWs, a transition from WAL to weak localization (WL) was observed in (113)-oriented QWs. This indicates that the PSH state is realized in (113)- oriented QWs.
