Measurement of Rashba and Dresselhaus spin–orbit magnetic fields
Spin–orbit coupling is a manifestation of special relativity. In the reference frame of a moving electron, electric fields transform into magnetic fields, which interact with the electron spin and lift the degeneracy of spin-up and spin-down states. In solid-state systems, the resulting spin–orbit fields are referred to as Dresselhaus and Rashba fields, depending on whether the electric fields ...
متن کاملSpin accumulation in diffusive conductors with Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit interaction
We calculate the electrically induced spin accumulation in diffusive systems due to both Rashba (with strength α) and Dresselhaus (with strength β) spin-orbit interaction. Using a diffusion equation approach we find that magnetoelectric effects disappear and that there is thus no spin accumulation when both interactions have the same strength, α = ±β. In thermodynamically large systems, the fin...
متن کاملConserved spin quantity in strained hole systems with Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling
We derive an effective Hamiltonian for a (001)-confined quasi-two-dimensional hole gas in a strained zincblende semiconductor heterostructure including both Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling. In the presence of uniaxial strain along the 〈110〉 axes, we find a conserved spin quantity in the vicinity of the Fermi contours in the lowest valence subband. In contrast to previous works, this ...
متن کاملBallistic transport in one-dimensional loops with Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling
We discuss the combined effect of Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit interactions in polygonal loops formed by quantum wires, when the electron are injected in a node and collected at the opposite one. The conditions that allow perfect localization zero transmission coefficient are found. Furthermore, we investigate the suppression of the transmission coefficient oscillations that appear, in the...
متن کاملInterplay of the Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling in the optical spin susceptibility of 2D electron systems
We present calculations of the frequency-dependent spin susceptibility tensor of a two-dimensional electron gas with competing Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit interaction. It is shown that the interplay between both types of spin-orbit coupling gives rise to an anisotropic spectral behavior of the spin density response function which is significantly different from that of vanishing Rashba or...
