AbstractWe experimentally study the spin and electric photocurrents excited by a linearly polarized light via direct interband transitions in an InGaAs/InAlAs quantum well. In the absence of a magnetic field, the linearly polarized light induces a pure spin current due to the spin-orbit coupling, which may be transformed into a measurable electric current by applying an in-plane magnetic field. The induced electric photocurrent is linear with the in-plane magnetic field. Here, we report a quadratic magnetic field dependence of the photocurrent in the presence of an additional perpendicular component of the magnetic field. We attribute the observation to the Hall effect of magnetoelectric photocurrent. © 2011 American Physical Society.
