Description

We have measured the dispersion of magnetoplasmons in high-density InAs/GaSb quantum wells. At zero magnetic field we find an offset 3/4v2Fq2 (q is the plasmon wave vector, vF is the Fermi velocity) with respect to the local plasmon frequency which is a direct manifestation of the Fermi pressure in a two-dimensional electron system. copyright 1996 The American Physical Society
