The charge concentration was kept constant, and the amplitude of the conductance correction was sup- pressed after the Bi-cluster deposition.

McCamfs ibrmula, the spin-relaxation time was extracted, which was found to increase with the elastic scattering time. This is attributed to the Elliott-Yafet spin relaxation and Kane-Mele type spin--orbit coupling （SOC）. The SOC strength was enhanced to 2.64 meV as a result of the first deposition.
