Spin-orbit coupled electronic structure of two representative non-polar half-Heusler alloys, namely 18 electron compound CoZrBi and 8 electron compound SiLiIn have been studied in details. An excursion through the Brillouin zone of these…
We investigate linear and nonlinear transport in interacting single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) that are weakly attached to ferromagnetic leads. For the reduced density matrix of a SWCNT quantum dot, equations of motion which account for…
We report an unconventional behavior of electron transport in the limit of zero magnetic flux in a one-dimensional disordered ring, be it completely random or any correlated one, subjected to Rashba spin-orbit (SO) coupling. It exhibits…
In this work we investigate the spin-dependent transport through a double quantum dot embedded in a ferromagnetic tunnel junction and side attached to a topological superconducting nanowire hosting Majorana zero-energy modes. We focus on…
Spin-orbit coupling is a manifestation of special relativity. In the reference frame of a moving electron, electric fields transform into magnetic fields, which interact with the electron spin and lift the degeneracy of spin-up and…
Manipulating the electron spin with the aid of spin-orbit coupling (SOC) is an indispensable element of spintronics. Electrostatically gating a material with strong SOC results in an effective magnetic field which can in turn be used to…
We utilize an exact variational numerical procedure to calculate the ground state properties of a polaron in the presence of Rashba and linear Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling. We find that when the linear Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling…
In the presence of both spin-orbit scattering and a magnetic field the conductance of a chaotic GaAs quantum dot displays quite a rich behavior. Using a Hamiltonian derived by Aleiner and Falko [Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 256801 (2001)] we…
The spin-dependent electron transport has been studied in magnetic semiconductor waveguides (nanowires) in the helical magnetic field. We have shown that -- apart from the known conductance dip located at the magnetic field equal to the…
The spin-orbit coupling (SOC) can mediate electric-dipole spin resonance (EDSR) in an a.c. electric field. In this letter, the EDSR is essentially understood as an spin precession under an effective a.c. magnetic field induced by the SOC in…
A WSe$_2$ monolayer shows many interesting properties due to its spin-orbit coupling induced spin splitting in bands around the Fermi level and the spin-valley configuration. The orientation of the spin polarization in the relevant bands is…
Electric weak links, the term used for those parts of an electrical circuit that provide most of the resistance against the flow of an electrical current, are important elements of many nanodevices. Quantum dots, nanowires and…
We have studied the tunneling conductance in two dimensional electron gas / insulator / superconductor junctions in the presence of Rashba spin-orbit coupling (RSOC). It is found that for low insulating barrier the tunneling conductance is…
We study the electronic structure of full-shell superconductor-semiconductor nanowires, which have recently been proposed for creating Majorana zero modes, using an eight-band $\vec{k} \cdot \vec{p}$ model within a fully self-consistent…
Curved and topologically nontrivial magnetic structures offer new pathways to control spin-wave behavior beyond planar geometries. Here, we study spin-wave dynamics in M\"obius-shaped soft-magnetic nanostrips using micromagnetic…
We consider a binary Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) with nonlinear repulsive interactions and linear spin-orbit (SO) and Zeeman-splitting couplings. In the presence of the trapping harmonic-oscillator (HO) potential, we report the existence…
We investigate theoretically the properties of a weak link between two superconducting leads, which has the form of a non-superconducting nanowire with a strong Rashba spin-orbit coupling caused by an electric field. In the Coulomb blockade…
We introduce and solve a semi-classical random walk (RW) model that describes the dynamics of spin polarization waves in zinc-blende semiconductor quantum wells. We derive the dispersion relations for these waves, including the Rashba,…
In symmetric quantum dots (QDs), it is well known that the spin-hot spot (i.e., the cusp-like structure due to the presence of degeneracy near the level or anticrossing point) is present for the pure Rashba case but is absent for the pure…
We report on the experimental study of electron transport in sub-micron-wide ''wires'' fabricated from Si $\delta $-doped GaAs. These quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) conductors demonstrate the crossover from weak to strong localization with…
