In 1984, Bychkov and Rashba introduced a simple form of spin-orbit coupling to explain certain peculiarities in the electron spin resonance of two-dimensional semiconductors. Over the past thirty years, similar ideas have been leading to a…
We predict that a single-level quantum dot without discernible splitting of its spin states develops a spin-precession resonance in charge transport when embedded into a spin valve. The resonance occurs in the generic situation of Coulomb…
The usual cyclotron resonance occurs at \omega_c=eB/m*c which is independent of spin. The new resonances depend on spin. The new resonances occur at \omega_{c\pm}=(1/2)g_{\pm}eB/m*c where (1/2)g_{\pm}= {\it l}+(1/2)\pm s/(2{\it l}+1). The…
