It was recently shown that BiTeI, a semiconductor with polar crystal structure, possesses a giant spin-splitting of electrons, which has been interpreted in terms of Rashba-type spin-orbit coupling. Here, we use high field magneto-optical…

We review recent advances on the theory of spin qubits in nanostructures. We focus on four selected topics. First, we show how to form spin qubits in the new and promising material graphene. Afterwards, we discuss spin relaxation and…

We present a quantum Boltzmann equation analysis of the spin-Hall effect in a diffusive Rashba two-dimensional electron system. Within the framework of the self-consistent Born approximation, we consider the roles of disorder-induced…

We argue that for some species of magnetic nanoparticles the macrospin can have a nonvanishing moment of inertia and then an orbital angular momentum. We represent such nanoparticles by two interacting rigid rotors one of which has a large…

Zitterbewegung is the exotic phenomenon associated either with the relativistic electron-positron rapid oscillation or to the electron-hole transitions in the narrow gap semiconductors. In the present work, we enlarge concept of…

Exploiting inversion symmetry breaking (ISB) in systems with strong spin-orbit coupling promises control of spin through electric fields - crucial to achieve miniaturization in spintronic devices. Delivering on this promise requires a…

Polariton polarization can be described in terms of a pseudospin which can be oriented along the $x,\,y,$ or $z$ axis, similarly to electron and hole spin. Unlike electrons and holes where time-reversal symmetry requires that the spin-orbit…

Zitterbewegung (ZB, trembling motion) of electrons in semiconductor carbon nanotubes is described taking into account dephasing processes. The density matrix formalism is used for the theory. Differences between decay of ZB oscillations due…

We consider twisted bilayer and trilayer graphene in the presence of Rashba spin-orbit coupling and explore the physics of Moir\'e spintronics. The electronic charge density has a sharp step right at the magic angles $\theta_m$. As a…

For the first time, using nonrelativistic approach we have calculated the attraction force, friction torque and the rate of radiation heat exchange in the system of two sprerical rotating particles located at a distance between one another.

We show that a nanometric four-probe ballistic junction can be used to check the presence of a transverse spin Hall current in a system with a Spin Orbit coupling not of the Rashba type, but rather due to the in-plane electric field.…

This review describes the physics of spins in quantum dots containing one or two electrons, from an experimentalist's viewpoint. Various methods for extracting spin properties from experiment are presented, restricted exclusively to…

Spin-orbit splitting of surface states is analyzed within and beyond the Rashba model using as examples the (111) surfaces of noble metals, Ag2Bi surface alloy, and topological insulator Bi2Se3. The ab initio analysis of relativistic…

The scattering cross sections of the unpolarized electromagnetic and gravitational waves are shown to be equal for the extreme Reissner-Nordstr\"om black hole using $N=2$ supergravity. The conversion cross sections between the unpolarized…

This article presents an overview of results pertaining to electronic structure, transport properties, and interaction effects in ballistic quantum wires with Rashba spin splitting. Limits of weak and strong spin--orbit coupling are…

In this letter, we investigated the Rashba effect of the CsPbBr$_3$ bilayers under the external electric field (EEF), with the first-principles calculations. For the PbBr$_2$ terminated bilayer, we found that only electrons experience the…

We study gravitational wave emission, zoom-whirl behavior and the resulting spin of the remnant black hole in highly boosted collisions of equal-mass, non spinning black-hole binaries with generic impact parameter.

The goal of this article is to review developments regarding the use of ultra-cold atoms as quantum simulators. Special emphasis is placed on relativistic quantum phenomena, which are presumably most interesting for the audience of this…

We present a theoretical study of spin Hall phenomenon in a nanoribbon of a two-dimensional electronic system with Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling. We model the electronic system by a square lattice in real space. We show that…

We investigate a quantum nonrelativistic system describing the interaction of two particles with spin 1/2 and spin 0, respectively. We assume that the Hamiltonian is rotationally invariant and parity conserving and identify all such systems…
