We present a new model for the study of spin-orbit coupling in interacting quasi-one-dimensional systems and solve it exactly to find the spectral properties of such systems. We show that the combination of spin-orbit coupling and…
This work considers the confining and scattering phenomena of electrons in a Lieb lattice subjected to the influence of a rectangular electrostatic barrier. In this setup, hopping amplitudes between nearest neighbors in orthogonal…
Manifestations of orbital angular momentum induced effects in the diffraction of a radially polarized vector beam by an off-axis tilted aperture are studied both experimentally and theoretically. Experiments were carried out to extract the…
Spin-orbit interactions in optics traditionally describe an influence of the polarization degree of freedom of light on its spatial properties. The most prominent example is the generation of a spin-dependent optical vortex upon focusing or…
A theory of dynamic polarizability for trapping relevant states of Sr$^+$ is presented here when the ions interact with a focused optical vortex. The coupling between the orbital and spin angular momentum of the optical vortex varies with…
It has recently been established that a linearly-polarized optical vortex possesses spin angular momentum density in the direction of propagation (longitudinal spin) under tight-focusing. The helicity of light has long been associated with…
One of the most fundamental properties of electromagnetism and special relativity is the coupling between the spin of an electron and its orbital motion. This is at the origin of the fine structure in atoms, the spin Hall effect in…
Spin polarization provides a novel probe of the rotational properties of the quark-gluon plasma formed in relativistic heavy-ion collisions. This work investigates the equation of state, particularly its transport and thermodynamic…
An interacting electron liquid in two (2D) and three (3D) dimensions may undergo a paramagnetic-to-ferromagnetic quantum spin polarization transition at zero applied magnetic field, driven entirely by exchange interactions, as the system…
We consider spin-vorticity coupling - the generation of spin polarization by vorticity - in viscous two-dimensional electron systems with spin-orbit coupling. We first derive hydrodynamic equations for spin and momentum densities in which…
We compute the electric spin susceptibility of Bloch electrons with spin-orbit coupling to second order. We find that it is possible to generate a nonequilibrium spin polarization in the bulk of non-magnetic inversion-symmetric materials…
We study here fractional orbital angular momentum (OAM) states in electron vortex beams (EVB) from the perspective of geometric phase. We have considered the skyrmionic model of an electron, where it is depicted as a scalar electron…
Spin-orbit interactions in two-dimensional electron liquids are responsible for many interesting transport phenomena in which particle currents are converted to spin polarizations and spin currents and viceversa. Prime examples are the spin…
A quantum theory of the spin-dependent scattering of semiconductor electrons by a Schottky barrier at an interface with a ferromagnet is presented. The reflection of unpolarized non-equilibrium carriers produces spontaneous…
The holographic mask technique is used to create freely moving electrons with quantized angular momentum. With electron optical elements they can be focused to vortices with diameters below the nanometer range. The understanding of these…
Spin polarization and spin transport are common phenomena in many quantum systems. Relativistic spin hydrodynamics provides an effective low-energy framework to describe these processes in quantum many-body systems. The fundamental symmetry…
The vortex structures and formations of the few-electron states in quantum dots without the Zeeman splitting are investigated. With spin degree of freedom, it is noticed that both the choices of probe electron and the ways to fix the other…
The spin-electron-acoustic waves (sometimes called the spin-plasmons) can be found in degenerate electron gas if the spin-up electrons and spin down electrons move relatively each other. Here, we suggest relativistic hydrodynamics with the…
This paper was concerned with the spin-momentum correlation in single-particle quantum states, which is described by the mixed states under Lorentz transformations. For convenience, instead of using the superposition of momenta we use only…
Vortex electrons, - freely propagating electrons whose wavefunction has helical wavefronts, - could become a novel tool in the physics of electromagnetic radiation. They carry a non-zero intrinsic orbital angular momentum (OAM) $\ell$ with…
