Abstract

We investigate possible spin instabilities of integer quantum Hall systems as a function of the density within the framework of the self-consistent Hartree-Fock theory. We have found a spin density wave (SDW) state that is lower in energy than the paramagnetic and ferromagnetic states for the filling factor $\ensuremath{\nu}=2$ in the density region $2.01<{r}_{s}<2.15$. The new SDW phase is the very one that has been expected by the softening of excitation spectra of the spin density excitation. We have examined the SDW phase in detail using the density matrix.
