We investigate theoretically the spin-polarized electron transport for a wide-narrow-wide (WNW) quantum wire under the modulation of Rashba spin-orbit interaction (SOI). The influence of both the structure of the quantum wire and the…

We consider a gated one-dimensional (1D) quantum wire disturbed in a contactless manner by an alternating electric field produced by a tip of a scanning probe microscope. In this schematic 1D electrons are driven not by a pulling electric…

Spin-orbit interaction (SOI) has been a key tool to steer and manipulate spin-dependent transport properties in two-dimensional electron gases. Here we demonstrate how spin currents can be created and efficiently read out in nano- or…

We investigate the transport properties of ballistic quantum wires in the presence of Zeeman spin splittings and a spatially inhomogeneous Rashba interaction. The Zeeman interaction is extended along the wire and produces gaps in the energy…

We calculate the Josephson current between two one-dimensional (1D) nanowires oriented along $x$ with proximity induced $s$-wave superconducting pairing and separated by a narrow dielectric barrier in the presence of both Rashba spin-orbit…

The Schr\"{o}dinger equation for an electron in a mesoscopic ring, in the presence of the Rashba and linear Dresselhaus terms of the spin-orbit interaction (SOI) and of a magnetic field $B$, is solved exactly. The effective electric fields…

We study the transport properties for a Luttinger-liquid (LL) quantum wire in the presence of both Rashba spin-orbit coupling (SOC) and a weak external in-plane magnetic field. The bosonized Hamiltonian of the system with an externally…

Spin-orbit interaction (SOI) offers a nonferromagnetic scheme to realize spin polarization through utilizing an electric field. Electrically tunable SOI through electrostatic gates have been investigated, however, the relatively weak and…

We study ballistic transport of spin-polarized electrons through quantum wires in which the strength of the Rashba spin-orbit interaction (SOI) is spatially modulated. Subband mixing, due to SOI, between the two lowest subbands is taken…

When subjected to a linearly polarized terahertz pulse, a mesoscopic ring endowed with spin-orbit interaction (SOI) of the Rashba-Dresselhaus type exhibits nonuniform azimuthal charge and spin distributions. Both types of SOI couplings are…

A Datta-Das spin field effect transistor is built of a one-dimensional weak link, with Rashba spin orbit interactions (SOI), which connects two magnetized reservoirs. The particle and spin currents between the two reservoirs are calculated…

We investigate the influence of a perpendicular magnetic field on the spectral and spin properties of a ballistic quasi-one-dimensional electron system with Rashba effect. The magnetic field strongly alters the spin-orbit induced…

Electron spins in a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) can be manipulated by spin-orbit (SO) fields originating from either Rashba or Dresselhaus interactions with independent isotropic characteristics. Together, though, they produce…

We investigate the effect of strong spin-orbit interaction on the electronic transport through non-magnetic impurities in one-dimensional systems. When a perpendicular magnetic field is applied, the electron spin polarization becomes…

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…

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…

We evaluate the transport coefficients of a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in the presence of a perpendicular magnetic field and of the spin-orbit interaction (SOI) described only by the Rashba term. The SOI mixes the spin-up and…

We study electron transport through waveguides (WGs) in which the strengths of the Rashba ($\alpha$) and Dresselhaus ($\beta$) terms of the spin-orbit interaction (SOI) vary in space. Subband mixing, due to lateral confinement, is taken…

We show that Rashba spin-orbit coupling may result in an energy gap in the spectrum of electrons in a two-mode quantum wire if a suitable confining potential is chosen. This leads to a dip in the conductance and a spike in the spin current…

The spin dynamics in a quantum wire with a Rashba spin orbit interaction (SOI) is shown to be controllable via sub-picosecond electromagnetic pulses shaped appropriately. If the light polarization vector is along the wire's direction, the…
