Rashba spin-orbit coupling and spin relaxation in silicon quantum wells
Silicon is a leading candidate material for spin-based devices, and two-dimensional electron gases s2DEGsd formed in silicon heterostructures have been proposed for both spin transport and quantum dot quantum computing applications. The key parameter for these applications is the spin relaxation time. Here we apply the theory of D’yakonov and Perel’ sDPd to calculate the electron spin resonance...
متن کاملSpin Hall current driven by quantum interferences in mesoscopic Rashba rings.
We propose an all-electrical nanostructure where pure spin current is induced in the transverse voltage probes attached to a quantum-coherent ballistic one-dimensional ring when unpolarized charge current is injected through its longitudinal leads. Tuning of the Rashba spin-orbit coupling in a semiconductor heterostructure hosting the ring generates quasiperiodic oscillations of the predicted s...
متن کاملQuantum dissipative Rashba spin ratchets.
We predict the possibility to generate a finite stationary spin current by applying an unbiased ac driving to a quasi-one-dimensional asymmetric periodic structure with Rashba spin-orbit interaction and strong dissipation. We show that under a finite coupling strength between the orbital degrees of freedom the electron dynamics at low temperatures exhibits a pure spin ratchet behavior, i.e., a ...
متن کاملEquilibrium spin current in graphene with Rashba spin-orbit coupling
The existence of a background spin current under thermodynamic equilibrium is an interesting phenomenon in the two-dimensional electron gas with Rashba spin-orbit coupling (RSOC). Here we study the equilibrium spin current (ESC) in graphene with RSOC. For an infinite graphene with uniform RSOC, we found that the ESC is proportional to λ(2) with λ the Rashba strength and mainly comes from the en...
متن کاملSpin transport study in a Rashba spin-orbit coupling system
One of the most important topics in spintronics is spin transport. In this work, spin transport properties of two-dimensional electron gas in Al(x)Ga(1-x)N/GaN heterostructure were studied by helicity-dependent photocurrent measurements at room temperature. Spin-related photocurrent was detected under normal incidence of a circularly polarized laser with a Gaussian distribution. On one hand, sp...
