Abstract
Resistance, magnetoresistance and their temperature dependences observed in the range of low and intermediate magnetic fields in a 2D hole gas at the [001] p-GaAs/Al0.5Ga0.5As heterointerface show a strong decrease under [110 ] uniaxial compression. The analysis performed in the framework of hole-hol e scattering between carriers in the two subbands of the spin-split ground heavy hole state indicates strong suppression of hole-hole scattering by un iaxial compression of 0.13 GPa.
