Spin-orbit coupling (SOC) can induce spin polarization in nonmagnetic 3D crystals when the inversion symmetry is broken, as manifested by the bulk Rashba (R-1) and Dresselhaus (D-1) effects. We determine that these spin polarization effects…
Crystals are the materials which can be described by uniform periodic lattices. Traditionally, only the 1-, 2-, 3-, 4- and 6-fold rotation symmetries are allowed in crystals because other n-fold rotation symmetries are forbidden by the…
