Spin-Hall conductivity in a two-dimensional Rashba electron gas

Spin-Hall conductivity and Pauli susceptibility of 2D electron gas with Rashba spin-orbital interaction is studied theoretically in the semiclassical limit kFl 1. Static spin-Hall conductivity is shown to be zero for any nonvanishing disorder strength in the general case of the momentum-dependent Rashba velocity p and nonparabolic spectrum p . This result is derived both by an explicit diagramm...

Theory of light-induced effective magnetic field in Rashba ferromagnets

Microscopic theory of the residual surface resistivity of Rashba electrons

A microscopic expression of the residual electrical resistivity tensor is derived in linear response theory for Rashba electrons scattering at a magnetic impurity with cylindrical or noncylindrical potential. The behavior of the longitudinal and transversal residual resistivity is obtained analytically and computed for an Fe impurity at the Au(111) surface. We studied the evolution of the resis...

Gas-aerosol-cirrus interactions

This work describes a process-oriented, microphysical-chemical model to simulate the formation and evolution of aerosols and ice crystals under the conditions prevailing in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere. The model can be run as a box model or along atmospheric trajectories, and considers mixing, gas phase chemistry 5 of aerosol precursors, binary homogeneous aerosol nucleation, h...

Interaction-tuned dynamical transitions in a Rashba spin-orbit-coupled Fermi gas.

We consider the time evolution of the magnetization in a Rashba spin-orbit coupled Fermi gas, starting from a fully polarized initial state. We model the dynamics using a Boltzmann equation, which we solve in the Hartree-Fock approximation. The resulting nonlinear system of equations gives rise to three distinct dynamical regimes with qualitatively different asymptotic behaviors of the magnetiz...
