The control of the magnetism of ultra-thin ferromagnetic layers using an electric field rather than a current, if large enough, would lead to many technologically important applications. To date, while it is usually assumed the changes in…
We have investigated the electronic properties of elliptical quantum dots in a perpendicular external magnetic field, and in the presence of the Rashba spin-orbit interaction. Our work indicates that the Fock-Darwin spectra display strong…
Magnetic anisotropy of spin models with directional-dependent interactions in the high-temperature paramagnetic phase is theoretically studied. Using a high temperature expansion, we show that the Ising type directional-dependent…
The spin-orbit interaction is a key tool for manipulating and functionalizing spin-dependent electron transport. However, the precise value of the spin-orbit coupling constant is hard to determine and control. Here we propose a measurement…
Using an exact diagonalization approach we show that one- and two-electron InAs quantum dots exhibit avoided crossing in the energy spectra that are induced by the spin-orbit coupling in the presence of an in-plane external magnetic field.…
It was experimentally observed that both magnetic anisotropy and spin-orbit interaction strength change when the magnetization of the nanomagnet is reversed. This indicates a variation in spin-orbit interaction strength depending on whether…
The magnetoresistance of a three-dimensional Rashba material placed on top of a ferromagnetic insulator is theoretically investigated. In addition to the intrinsic Rashba spin-orbit interaction, we also consider extrinsic spin-orbit…
We study the formation of local moments in quantum dots arising in quasi-one dimensional electron wires due to localized spin-orbit (Rashba) interaction. Using an Anderson-like model to describe the occurrence of the magnetic moments in…
Theory of Rashba spin-orbit coupling in magnetic metals is worked out from microscopic Hamiltonian describing d-orbitals. When structural inversion symmetry is broken, electron hopping between $d$-orbitals generates chiral ordering of…
We study anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) in a spin-polarized two-dimensional electron gas with Rashba spin-orbit coupling and nonmagnetic disorder collision. We show that AMR exists, arising from the combined effect of in-plane…
We show that a controllable dc magnetization is accumulated in a junction comprising a quantum dot coupled to non-magnetic reservoirs if the junction is subjected to a time-dependent spin-orbit interaction. The latter is induced by an ac…
In the Kitaev honeycomb model, spins coupled by strongly-frustrated anisotropic interactions do not order at low temperature but instead form a quantum spin liquid with spin fractionalization into Majorana fermions and static fluxes. The…
Magneto-resistance is a physical effect of great fundamental and industrial interest since it is the basis for the magnetic field sensors used in computer read-heads and Magnetic Random Access Memories. As device dimensions are reduced,…
We report on a theoretical approach developed to investigate the influence of Bychkov-Rashba interaction on a few interacting electrons confined in a quantum dot. We note that the spin-orbit coupling profoundly influences the energy…
We reveal that the interplay between Rashba spin-orbit coupling and proximity-induced magnetization in a two-dimensional electron gas leads to peculiar transport properties and large anisotropy of magnetoresistance. While the related…
The separate and combined influences of the spin-orbit and electron-electron interactions on the electron magnetization in quantum rings have been studied theoretically on the basis of the spin-density-functional theory and the Kohn-Sham…
The combination of Rashba spin-orbit coupling and electron correlations can induce unusual phenomena in the metallic interface between SrTiO$_3$ and LaAlO$_3$. We consider effects of Rashba spin-orbit coupling at this interface in the…
Magneto-transport properties of a two-dimensional electron gas in a chain of planar quantum rings are investigated under the Rashba spin-orbit interaction and a transverse homogeneous magnetic field. A modulation potential function models…
Rashba spin-orbit interactions generated by time-dependent electric fields acting on weak links (that couple together non-magnetic macroscopic leads) can magnetize the junction. The Rashba spin-orbit interaction that affects the spins of…
Magnetic anisotropy in an antiferromagnet (AFM) with inversion symmetry breaking (ISB) is investigated. The magnetic anisotropy energy (MAE) resulting from the Rashba spin-orbit and s-d type exchange interactions is determined for two…
