Spin-orbit interaction in quantum wires leads to a spin resonance at low temperatures, even in the absence of an external dc magnetic field. We study the effect of electron-electron interaction on the resonance. This interaction is strong…
Spatially nonhomogeneously spin polarized nuclei are proposed as a new mechanism to monitor electron states in a nanostructure, or as a means to createn and, if necessary, reshape such nanostructures in the course of the experiment. We…
Spin-orbit interactions lead to small energy gaps between the outer-most $p_{1/2}$ and $p_{3/2}$ shells of noble gas atoms. Strong-field pulses tunnel-ionize an electron out of either shell resulting in spin-orbit-driven hole motion. These…
