Theory predicts for the two-dimensional electrons gas with only Rashba spin-orbit interaction a vanishing spin Hall conductivity and at the same time a finite inverse spin Hall effect. We show how these seemingly contradictory results are…

Spin Hall effects are a collection of phenomena, resulting from spin-orbit coupling, in which an electrical current flowing through a sample can lead to spin transport in a perpendicular direction and spin accumulation at lateral…
The spin Hall effect is a phenomenon that an electric field induces a spin Hall current. In this Letter, we examine the inverse effect that, in a ferromagnetic conductor, a charge Hall current is induced by a spin motive force, or a…
Hamiltonian systems can be classified into ten classes, in terms of the presence or absence of time-reversal symmetry, particle-hole symmetry and sublattice/chiral symmetry. We construct a quantum coherent scattering theory of linear…
