Spin Splitting In Graphene Studied By Means Of Tilted Magnetic-Field Experiments

We have measured the spin splitting in single-layer and bilayer graphene by means of tilted magnetic-field experiments. By applying the Lifshitz-Kosevich formula for the spin-induced decrease of the Shubnikov-de Haas amplitudes with increasing tilt angle, we directly determine the product between the carrier cyclotron mass m* and the effective g factor g* as a function of the charge-carrier concentration. By using the cyclotron mass for a single-layer and a bilayer graphene, we find an enhanced g factor g* = 2.7 +/- 0.2 for both systems.
