Abstract: Amounts of spontaneous spin splittings were estimated from low-temperature magnetoresistances in two-dimensional electron gases created at In_<0.75>Ga_<0.25>As/In_<0.75>Al_<0.25>As heterojunctions under a gate bias. Typical sheet electron densities and mobilities in the raw wafers were ~1.0×10^<12>/cm^2 and 2-5×10^5 cm^2/V s at 1.5 K, respectively. A maximum spin-orbit coupling constant α_<zero> of ~30(×10^<-12> eV m) was obtained for the van der Pauw sample. In gated Hall-bar samples, a decrease in the α_<zero> value with decreasing gate voltage (V_g) was first confirmed in a normal heterojunction. The main origin for such a large α_<zero>, which is a few times larger than any previously reported, was found to be a structure-dependent so-called interface contribution in the Rashba term.
