Abstract

We have performed magneto-transport experiments on a high mobility 2DEG in a Si/SiGe heterojunction in tilted magnetic fields up to 26 T at temperatures down to 450 mK. When tilting the sample in the magnetic field the value of the spin splitting increases with respect to the Landau level splitting leading to an overlap of spin-split sub-levels of different Landau levels, the so-called coincidences. Coincidences between up to five neighbouring Landau levels are found. From their positions we deduce a Landé factor g* ≈ 3.4. Coincidences between the lowest Landau levels with fully resolved individual valley states show extremely high SdH peaks compared to the individual SdH maxima outside the coincidence suggesting strong exchange enhancement effects in the occurrence of the coincidence.
