We perform an all-optical spin-dynamic measurement of the Rashba spin-orbit interaction in (110)-oriented GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wells. The crystallographic direction of quantum confinement allows us to disentangle the contributions to…

We explore the impact of a Rashba-type spin-orbit interaction in the conduction band on the spin dynamics of hot excitons in diluted magnetic semiconductor quantum wells. In materials with strong spin-orbit coupling, we identify parameter…

Spin-dependent heat and thermoelectric currents in a quantum ring with Rashba spin-orbit interaction placed in a photon cavity are theoretically calculated. The quantum ring is coupled to two external leads with different temperatures. In a…

The spin precession in a cylindrical semiconductor nanowire due to Rashba spin-orbit coupling has been investigated theoretically using an InAs nanowire containing a surface two-dimensional electron gas as a model. The eigenstates,…

Using a macroscopic approach, we studied theoretically the heat generation due to spin transport in a typical spin valve with nonmagnetic spacer layer of finite thickness. Our analysis shows that the spin-dependent heat generation can also…

We study the $zitterbewegung$ of a heavy hole in presence of both cubic Rashba and cubic Dresselhaus spin-orbit interactions. On contrary to the electronic case, $zitterbewegung$ does not vanish for equal strength of Rashba and Dresselhaus…

In this work we investigate spin diffusion in InAs quantum wells with the Rashba spin-orbit coupling modulated by a gate voltage. The gate voltage dependence of the spin diffusion under different temperatures is studied with all the…

Magnetization dynamics in a ferromagnet can induce a spin-dependent electric field through spin motive force. Spin current generated by the spin-dependent electric field can in turn modify the magnetization dynamics through spin-transfer…

In a ferromagnetic heterostructure, the interplay between a Rashba spin-orbit coupling and an exchange field gives rise to a current-driven spin torque. In a realistic device setup, we investigate the Rashba spin torque in the diffusive…

The Rashba effect is one of the most striking manifestations of spin-orbit coupling in solids, and provides a cornerstone for the burgeoning field of semiconductor spintronics. It is typically assumed to manifest as a momentum-dependent…

Larmor's theorem holds for magnetic systems that are invariant under spin rotation. In the presence of spin-orbit coupling this invariance is lost and Larmor's theorem is broken: for systems of interacting electrons, this gives rise to a…

Following a previous work [Shen, Ma, Xie and Zhang, Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 256603 (2004)] on the resonant spin Hall effect, we present detailed calculations of the spin Hall conductance in two-dimensional quantum wells in a strong…

Elementary excitations in a paramagnetic semiconductor quantum well confined to a cylindrical surface are theoretically studied on the basis of coupled spin-charge drift-diffusion equations. The electric-field-mediated eigenmodes are…

We use a mean field approach to study the conductance modulation of gate controlled semiconductor spin interferometers based on the Rashba spin-orbit coupling effect. The conductance modulation is found to be mostly due to Ramsauer type…

We present theoretical studies of the influence of spin orbit coupling on the spin wave excitations of the Fe monolayer and bilayer on the W(110) surface. The Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction is active in such films, by virtue of the…

A diversity of spin Hall effects in metallic systems is known to rely on Mott skew scattering. In this work its high-temperature counterpart, phonon skew scattering, which is expected to be of foremost experimental relevance, is…

Current-driven magnetization dynamics of single ferromagnets in heavy metal/ferromagnet bilayers has been recently realized. In this work, spin torque induced by so-called Rashba spin-orbit coupling and spin Hall effect are considered…

The heat capacity of conduction electrons obtained from the Sommerfeld expansion is shown to be tunable via the Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling parameters. Using an AlInSb/InSb/AlInSb as a representative heterostructure with…

We consider the Higgs mode at nonzero momentum in superconductors and demonstrate that in the presence of Rashba spin-orbit coupling, it couples linearly with an external exchange field. The Higgs-spin coupling dramatically modifies the…

We study the effects of Rashba spin-orbit coupling on the spin torque induced by spin waves, which are the plane wave dynamics of magnetization. The spin torque is derived from linear response theory, and we calculate the dynamic spin…
