Spin-conserving and spin-flip opaque reflections of electrons from a potential barrier in heterostructures are described. An electric field of the barrier is considered to be the only source of energy spin splitting in the presence of…

We study the scattering of an electron in a definite state of spin at an interface of an hybrid system with a Rashba spin-orbit coupling on one side. Out of the normal incidence the double refraction phenomenon appears, with one or two…

We briefly review the phenomenon of the spin-double refraction that originates at an interface separating a two-dimensional electron gas with Rashba spin-orbit coupling from a one without. We demonstrate how this phenomenon in semiconductor…

The Dirac equation is used to describe oblique spin-conserving and spin-flip reflections of relativistic electrons from a one-dimensional potential barrier in a vacuum. When an electron hits the barrier from an oblique direction, its…

We demonstrate how the Rashba spin-orbit coupling in semiconductor heterostructures can produce and control a spin-polarized current without ferromagnetic leads. Key idea is to use spin-double refraction of an electronic beam with a nonzero…

A modulation of refractive index can move at the speed of light. How it interacts with an electromagnetic wave? Does it reflect? We show that an incident electromagnetic wave, depending on its frequency either is totally transmitted with a…

We present both theory and numerical-computation results for the transmission and reflection probability currents of a charged particle across a potential step in the presence of a Rashba spin-orbit interaction. By varying kinetic energy…

The spin-dependent elastic reflection of quasi two-dimensional electrons from a lateral impenetrable barrier in the presence of band-structure spin-orbit coupling results in a spin angular impulse exerted on the electrons which is…

The spin dependent reflection in quasi-two-dimensional electron gas from an impenetrable barrier in presence of Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling is analyzed in detail. It is shown that due to spin-orbit effects the reflected beam…

We study spin transport through a normal metal-spin superconductor junction. A spin-flip reflection is demonstrated at the interface, where a spin-up electron incident from the normal metal can be reflected as a spin-down electron and the…

Frustration introduces a nontrivial dispersion relation of spinwave even in a ferromagnetic phase in a spin system. We study the reflection and refraction process of spinwaves in the ferromagnet/frustrated ferromagnet junction system by…

The edge diffraction of a homogeneously polarized light beam is studied theoretically based on the paraxial optics and Fresnel-Kirchhoff approximation, and the dependence of the diffracted beam pattern of the incident beam polarization is…

We theoretically propose a novel spin-dependent electronic transport mechanism in which the spin-unpolarized electron beam is split into different directions depending on spins at an atomic domain boundary in non-magnetic material.…

In light refraction between two transparent media, Snell's law describes the relationship between the incident angle and refraction angle. The refractive index is usually determined from Snell's law using the minimum deviation angle through…

The refractive index of a dielectric medium comprising both passive and inverted components in its permittivity was determined using two methods: (i) in the time domain, a finite-difference algorithm to compute the frequency-domain…

We describe theoretically the process of multi-beam reflection in a two-dimensional electron system with a lateral potential barrier. Due to spin-orbital interaction, the reflection process leads to the formation of three beams with…

In analogy with light refraction at optical boundary, ballistic electrons also undergo refraction when propagate across a semiconductor junction. Establishing a negative refractive index in conventional optical materials is difficult, but…

We study theoretically the differential conductance at a junction between a time reversal symmetry broken spin orbit coupled system with a tunable band gap and a superconductor. We look for spin-dependent Andreev reflection (i.e, sub-gap…

We report on a theoretical study of spin dynamics of an ensemble of spin-polarized electrons injected in a diffusive microchannel with linear Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling. We explore the dependence of the spin-precession and…

Reflection of a microscopic particle from a mesoscopic/macroscopic `mirror' generates two-body correlated interference from the incident and reflected particle substates and their associated mirror substates. The microscopic momentum…
