We calculate the spin-Hall conductivity of a disordered two-dimensional Rashba electron gas within the self-consistent Born approximation and for arbitrary values of the electron density, parametrized by the ratio $E_F /E_0$, where $E_F$ is…
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.…
We show that a pure spin current can be injected in quantum wells by the absorption of linearly polarized infrared radiation, leading to transitions between subbands. The magnitude and the direction of the spin current depend on the…
Spin-Hall conductivity $\sigma_{{\rm s}xy}$ and orbital susceptibility $\chi$ are investigated for the anisotropic Wolff Hamiltonian, which is an effective Hamiltonian common to Dirac electrons in solids. It is found that, both for…
The quantum spin Hall (QSH) states discovered in an inverted band of InAs/GaSb and HgTe/CdTe quantum wells categorize them among the very superior candidates for topological insulators. In the presence of a magnetic field, these QSH states…
We investigate the transport properties in a zigzag silicene nanoribbon in the presence of an external electric field. The staggered sublattice potential and two kinds of Rashba spin-orbit couplings can be induced by the external electric…
The phenomenon of mesoscopic Spin-Hall effect reveals in a nonequilibrium spin accumulation (driven by electric current) at the edges of a ballistic conductor or, more generally, in the regions with varying electron density. In this paper…
Spin Hall effect (SHE) has been discussed in the context of Kubo formulation, geometric physics, spin orbit force, and numerous semi-classical treatments. It can be confusing if the different pictures have partial or overlapping claims of…
It was proposed recently by Murakami et al. [Science \textbf{301}, 1348(2003)] that in a large class of $p$-doped semiconductors, an applied electric field can drive a quantum dissipationless spin current in the direction perpendicular to…
We consider spin Hall effect in a system of massless Dirac fermions in a graphene lattice. Two types of spin-orbit interaction, pertinent to the graphene lattice, are taken into account - the intrinsic and Rashba terms. Assuming perfect…
We determine wave number $q$ and frequency $\omega$ dependent spin Hall conductivity $\sigma_{yx}^s(q, \omega)$ for a disordered two dimensional electron system with Rashba spin orbit interaction when $\q$ is {\it transverse} to the…
We observe the magnetic oscillation of electric conductance in the two-dimensional InAs/GaSb quantum spin Hall insulator. Its insulating bulk origin is unambiguously demonstrated by the antiphase oscillations of the conductance and the…
Because spin-orbit coupling (SOC) is invisible in the band structure when inversion symmetry exists, whether spins are trivially degenerate or strongly coupled to momentum due to SOC is presumed to make little difference in transport…
In these lecture notes we study the disordered two-dimensional electron gas in the presence of Rashba spin-orbit coupling, by using the Keldysh non-equilibrium Green function technique. We describe the effects of the spin-orbit coupling in…
We theoretically investigate spin transport in half-metallic ferromagnets at finite temperatures. The side-jump and skew-scattering contributions to spin Hall conductivity are derived using the Kubo formula. The electron-magnon interaction…
Quantum transport measurements are performed in gate-defined, high-quality, two-dimensional hole and electron systems in an undoped InSb quantum well. For both polarities, the carrier systems show tunable spin-orbit interaction as extracted…
We present an extension of the relativistic electron transport theory for the standard (charge) conductivity tensor of random alloys within the tight-binding linear muffin-tin orbital method to the so-called spin-dependent conductivity…
We study intersubband spin density collective modes in double-layer quantum Hall systems at $\nu=2$ within the time-dependent Hartree-Fock approximation. We find that these intersubband spin density excitations may soften under…
The quantum Hall effect is usually observed when the two-dimensional electron gas is subjected to an external magnetic field, so that their quantum states form Landau levels. In this work we predict that a new phenomenon, the quantum…
Recently unusual integer quantum Hall effect was observed in graphene in which the Hall conductivity is quantized as $\sigma_{xy}=(\pm 2, \pm 6, \pm 10, >...) \times \frac{e^2}{h}$, where $e$ is the electron charge and $h$ is the Planck…
