Abstract
Electrically detected electron spin resonance (ESR) is used to study the hyperfine interaction of the two-dimensional electrons and the nuclei of the host lattice in a GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure. Under the microwave and radio- frequency double excitations, we have observed that the ESR line can be pinned in a very narrow range of magnetic field - in the vicinity of the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) of the nuclei of the GaAs crystal. Our observations suggest that this pinning effect is the result of a competition process between the ESR induced dynamic nuclear polarization and the NMR induced depolarization.
