Abstract

The two band model is a good approximation for the energy band structure of the electrons in bismuth, and consequently the spin splitting factor of electron becomes nearly one. However, detailed studies on giant quantum attenuation of ultrasonic waves show that the spin splitting factor has an anomalous angular dependence. This behavior is explained in terms of the quantum variation of the Fermi energy caused by a strong magnetic field.
