Multichannel effects in Rashba quantum wires
We investigate intersubband mixing effects in multichannel quantum wires in the presence of Rashba spin-orbit coupling and attached to two terminals. When the contacts are ferromagnetic and their magnetization direction is perpendicular to the Rashba field, the spin-transistor current is expected to depend in an oscillatory way on the Rashba coupling strength due to spin coherent oscillations o...
متن کاملExciton spin polarization in magnetic semiconductor quantum wires
Electron-beam lithography and wet etching techniques are used to laterally pattern ZnSe/ ~Zn,Cd,Mn!Se single quantum wells into magnetically active quantum wires with widths ranging from 20 to 80 nm. Photoluminescence spectroscopy as a function of wire width reveals a competition between elastic strain relaxation and quantum confinement. Magnetophotoluminescence measurements at low temperatures...

متن کاملQuantum networks in the presence of the Rashba effect and a magnetic field
We use a simple formalism to calculate the conductance of any quantum network consisting of single-channel one-dimensional quantum wires in the presence of Rashba spin-orbit coupling and a coupling magnetic field. We show that the Rashba effect may give rise to an electron localization phenomenon similar to the Aharonov–Bohm effect. This localization effect can be attributed to spin precession ...
متن کاملMagnetically controlled impurities in quantum wires with strong Rashba coupling
We investigate the effect of strong spin-orbit interaction on the electronic transport through nonmagnetic impurities in one-dimensional systems. When a perpendicular magnetic field is applied, the electron spin polarization becomes momentum-dependent and spin-flip scattering appears, to first order in the applied field, in addition to the usual potential scattering. We analyze a situation in w...
