Abstract
The -factor enhancement of the spin-polarized two-dimensional electron gas was measured directly over a wide range of spin polarizations, using spin flip resonant Raman scattering spectroscopy on two-dimensional electron gases embedded in semimagnetic quantum wells. At zero Raman transferred momentum, the single-particle spin flip excitation, energy , coexists in the Raman spectrum with the spin flip wave of energy , the bare giant Zeeman splitting. We compare the measured -factor enhancement with recent spin-susceptibility enhancement theories and deduce the spin-polarization dependence of the mass renormalization.
