Fits to the standard Lifshitz-Kosevich theory allows the frequency (proportional to the area of the FS), the cyclotron mass and the scattering rate to be extracted. Our measurements show a drastic change in the FS topology from small pocket at low doping to large cylinder in the overdoped regime. [1]:C. Jaudet et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 100, 187005(2008) [2]:B.
