Nonrelativistic formalism is developed, which allows describing systems with internal degrees of freedom in the scalar potential field $U$, which is a function both on relative coordinates and time, and on relative speed and accelerations.…
The highly successful Dirac equation can predict peculiar effects such as Klein tunneling and the "Zitterbewegung" (German for "trembling motion") of electrons. From the time it was first identified by Erwin Schrodinger, Zitterbewegung (ZB)…
Ultrathin magnetic systems have properties qualitatively different from their thicker counterparts, implying that different physics governs their properties. We demonstrate that various such properties can be explained naturally by the…
Emerging possibilities for creating and studying novel plasma regimes, e.g. relativistic plasmas and dense systems, in a controlled laboratory environment also requires new modeling tools for such systems. This brings motivation for…
We study the influence of spin-orbit interactions on quasiparticle dispersions in two-dimensional electron and heavy-hole liquids in III-V semiconductors. To obtain closed-form analytical results, we restrict ourselves to spin-orbit…
The Zitterbewegung phenomenon in multiband electronic systems is known to be subtly related to the charge conductivity, Berry curvature and the Chern number. Here we show that some spin-dependent properties as the optical spin conductivity,…
Superconducting systems such as those modeled by the Kitaev Hamiltonian are found to exhibit the Zitterbewegung (ZB) oscillations. Remarkably, the dispersion relation in one-dimensional Kitaev systems allows for wavepackets of arbitrary…
In a semiclassical context we investigate the Zitterbewegung of relativistic particles with spin 1/2 moving in external fields. It is shown that the analogue of Zitterbewegung for general observables can be removed to arbitrary order in…
We study the exciton condensate in zero temperature limit in a special class of electron-hole bilayer systems adjacent to insulating ferromagnetic films. With the self-consistent mean-field approximation, we find that the Rashba spin-orbit…
Rashba spin splitting in two-dimensional (2D) semiconductor systems is generally calculated in a ${\bf k} \cdot {\bf p}$ Luttinger-Kohn approach where the spin splitting due to asymmetry emerges naturally from the bulk band structure. In…
The Rashba effect as an electrically tunable spin-orbit interaction is the base for a multitude of possible applications such as spin filters, spin transistors, and quantum computing using Majorana states in nanowires. Moreover, this…
The lack of some spatial symmetries in planar devices with Rashba spin-orbit interaction opens the possibility of producing spin polarized electrical currents in absence of external magnetic field or magnetic impurities. We study how the…
We quantify the effect of the spin-orbit interaction on the Rydberg-like series of image state electrons at the (111) and (001) surface of Ir, Pt and Au. Using relativistic multiple-scattering methods we find Rashba-like dispersions with…
Both magnetism and spin-orbit coupling in systems with broken inversion symmetry lift the spin degeneracy of electronic bands, but the consequences of interplay between these mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we show that ultrathin…
In this short note, we try to show that inside a vortex like region, like a black hole one cane observe superluminosity which yields some interesting results. Also, we consider the zitterbewegung fluctuations to obtain an interpretation of…
Intrinsic and extrinsic spin Hall effects are considered together on an equal theoretical footing for the Rashba spin-orbit coupling in two-dimensional (2D) electron and hole systems, using the diagrammatic method for calculating the spin…
Spin-orbit interaction in semiconductor structures with broken space inversion symmetry leads to spin splitting of electron and hole states even in the absence of magnetic field. We discover that, beyond the Rashba and Dresselhaus…
The beating pattern of Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations in 2D electron system in the presence of a Rashba zero-field spin splitting is reproduced. It is shown, taking into account the Zeeman splitting, that the explicit formulae for the node…
To an electron moving in free space an electric field appears as a magnetic field which interacts with and can reorient the electron spin. In semiconductor quantum wells this spin-orbit interaction seems to offer the possibility of…
Traditionally, the zitterbewegung (ZB) of the Dirac electron has just been studied at the level of quantum mechanics. Seeing that the fact that an old interest in ZB has recently been rekindled by the investigations on spintronic, graphene,…
