Up to now, Rashba-type splittings of this size have been reported exclusively for surface states in a partial band gap. With these quantum-well states we have experimentally identified a second class of states that show a huge spin-orbit splitting. First-principles electronic structure calculations show that the origin of the spin-orbit splitting is due to the perpendicular potential at the surface and interface of the ultrathin Bi film. This finding allows for the direct possibility to tailor spin-orbit splitting by means of thin-film nanofabrication.}, keywords = {J (WoSType)}, cin = {IFF-1 / IAS-1 / JARA-FIT / JARA-SIM}, ddc = {550}, cid = {I:(DE-Juel1)VDB781 / I:(DE-Juel1)IAS-1-20090406 / $I:(DE-82)080009_20140620$ / I:(DE-Juel1)VDB1045}, pnm = {Grundlagen für zukünftige Informationstechnologien}, pid = {G:(DE-Juel1)FUEK412}, shelfmark = {Physics, Multidisciplinary}, typ = {PUB:(DE-HGF)16}, UT = {WOS:000274445100039}, doi = {10.1103/PhysRevLett.104.066802}, url = {https://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/8721}, }
