The spin Hall effect does not generally result in a charge Hall voltage. We predict that in systems with inhomogeneous electron density in the direction perpendicular to main current flow, the spin Hall effect is instead accompanied by a…
We find that the total spectrum of electron states in a bounded 2D electron gas with spin-orbit interaction contains two types of evanescent states lying in different energy ranges. The first-type states fill in a gap, which opens in the…
The spin-orbit interaction enables interconversion between a charge current and a spin current. It is usually believed that in a nonmagnetic metal (NM) or at a NM/ferromagnetic metal (FM) bilayer interface, the symmetry of spin-orbit…
We study the properties of spin systems realized by cold polar molecules interacting via dipole-dipole interactions in two dimensions. Using a spin wave theory, that allows for the full treatment of the characteristic long-distance tail of…

We consider the magnetic response of a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) with a spin-orbit interaction to a long-wave-length electromagnetic excitation. We observe that the transverse electric field creates spin polarization perpendicular…
Converting charge current into spin current is one of the main mechanisms exploited in spintronics. One prominent example is the Edelstein effect, namely the generation of a magnetization in response to an external electric field, which can…
Linear and nonlinear transport of quantum wires is investigated at a magnetic field where spin-split one-dimensional (1D) subbands are equidistant in energy. In this seldom-studied regime, experiments are consistent with a density-dependent…
The spin Hall (SH) effect is a phenomenon in which the spin current flows perpendicular to an applied electric field and causes the spin accumulation at the boundaries. However, in the presence of spin-orbit couplings, the spin current is…
It is shown that the electron spin may not be conserved after a spin-independent scattering. This fact strongly limits the validity of the classical model of spin-up/spin-down bands, which has been used for description of magnetic…
We studied the drift of electron spins under an applied DC electric field in single layer graphene spin valves in a field effect transport geometry at room temperature. In the metallic conduction regime ($n \simeq 3.5 \times 10^{16}$…

We discuss the effect of the spin-orbit interaction on the band structure, wave functions and low temperature conductance of long quasi-one-dimensional electron systems patterned in two-dimensional electron gases (2DEG). Our model for these…
The polarization operator projections onto four directions remain unchanged for spin-1 particles without an anomalous magnetic moment in a uniform magnetic field. The approximate conservation of the polarization operator projections onto…
The effects of spin-orbit scattering of conduction electrons in the Kondo regime are investigated theoretically. It is shown that due to time-reversal symmetry, spin-orbit scattering does not suppress the Kondo effect, even though it breaks…
We develop a theory for graphene magnetotransport in the presence of carrier spin polarization as induced, for example, by the application of an in-plane magnetic field ($B$) parallel to the 2D graphene layer. We predict a negative…
At each of the boundaries of the two-dimensional (2D) rectangular conductor parallel to the electric current there arises a stripe with an electric field transverse to the current and a 100% electron spin polarization. The two stripes have…

We characterize the role of the spin-orbit coupling between electrons and the confining potential of the edge in nonequilibrium 2D homogeneous electronic gas. We derive a simple analytical result for the magnitude of the current induced…
