Abstract
Tilted field magnetotransport study was performed in a two-valley strained Si quantum well and hysteretic diagonal resistance spikes were observed near the coincidence angles. The spike around filling factor ν = 3 develops into a giant feature when it moves to the high-field edge of the quantum Hall (QH) state and quenches for higher tilt angles. When the spike is most prominent, its peak resistance is temperature independent from T∼20 mK up to 0.3 K, which is different from the critical behavior previously reported near the Curie temperature of the QH ferromagnet in AlAs quantum wells. Our data suggest a strong interplay between spins and valleys near the coincidence.
