  Spin relaxation of two-dimensional electrons in asymmetrical (001) AlGaAs
quantum wells are measured by means of Hanle effect. Three different spin
relaxation times for spins oriented along [110], [1-10] and [001]
crystallographic directions are extracted demonstrating anisotropy of
D'yakonov-Perel' spin relaxation mechanism. The relative strengths of Rashba
and Dresselhaus terms describing the spin-orbit coupling in semiconductor
quantum well structures. It is shown that the Rashba spin-orbit splitting is
about four times stronger than the Dresselhaus splitting in the studied
structure.
