Spin-orbit and g-factor effects in gate define quantum dots
We analyze orbital effects of an in-plane magnetic field on the spin structure of states of a gated quantum dot. Starting with a k.p Hamiltonian, we perturbatively calculate these effects for the conduction band of GaAs. We quantify several corrections to the g-tensor and reveal their relative importance and find numerous terms. The Rashba, Dresselhaus and isotropic terms give the largest contributions in magnitude, up to 5% or 10% of the bulk value at zero field. Stano et al., arXiv:1808.03963
