Abstract

We demonstrate a way to polarize and detect nuclear spin in a gate-defined quantum point contact operating at high Landau levels. Resistively-detected Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (RDNMR) can be achieved up to the $5$th Landau level and at a magnetic field lower than $1$ T. We are able to retain the RDNMR signals in a condition where the spin degeneracy of the first 1D subband is still preserved. Furthermore, the effects of orbital motion on the first 1D subband can be made smaller than those due to electrostatic confinement. This developed RDNMR technique is a promising means to study electronic states in a quantum point contact near zero magnetic field.
