A full band-structure ab initio calculation of the degree of spin polarization (DSP) in stressed bulk Si and bulk GaAs is reported. For Si, we found that compressive stress causes the DSP signal peak to decrease slightly in magnitude and to…
We investigate the physical mechanisms for achieving an electrical control of conventional spin-singlet superconductivity in thin films by focusing on the role of surface orbital polarization. Assuming a multi-orbital description of the…
We study the spin polarization of the electrons on the surface of topological insulators under a dc electric field or a circularly polarized light by using Keldysh Green's function formalism. When a dc electric field $E_x \sim 10^{3} {\rm…
The effects of interplay between spin-orbit coupling and Zeeman splitting on weak localisation and universal conductance fluctuations in lateral semiconductor quantum dots are analysed: All possible symmetry classes of corresponding random…
By studying the time and spatial evolution of a pulse of the spin polarization in $n$-type semiconductor quantum wells, we highlight the importance of the off-diagonal spin coherence in spin diffusion and transport. Spin oscillations and…
As is well known the absorption of circularly polarized light in semiconductors results in optical orientation of electron spins and helicity-dependent electric photocurrent, and the absorption of linearly polarized light is accompanied by…
The effect of spin-orbit interaction on electron transport properties of a cross-junction structure is studied. It is shown that it results in spin polarization of left and right outgoing electron waves. Consequently, incoming electron wave…
Recent experimental work has demonstrated optical control of spin wave emission by tuning the shape of the optical pulse (Satoh et al.\ Nature Photonics, 6, 662 (2012)). We reproduce these results and extend the scope of the control by…
Semiconductor point contacts can be a useful tool for producing spin-polarized currents in the presence of spin-orbit (SO) interaction. Neither magnetic fields nor magnetic materials are required. By numerical studies, we show that (i) the…
Uniaxial strain experiments have become a powerful tool to unveil the character of unconventional phases of electronic matter. Here we propose a combination of the superconducting fitness analysis and density functional theory (DFT)…
We investigate the effects of spin-orbit coupling on the optical response of materials. In particular, we study the effects of the commutator between the spin-orbit coupling part of the potential and the position operator on the optical…
The transverse component of the spin angular momentum of evanescent waves gives rise to lateral optical forces on chiral particles, which have the unusual property of acting in a direction in which there is neither a field gradient nor wave…
The possibility of controlling the optical transition probability between neighbouring silicon nanoclusters (Si-NCs) constitutes nowadays an attractive prospect in nanophotonics and photovoltaics. In this work, by means of theoretical…
The semiclassical dynamics of a charged spin-1/2 particle in an intense electromagnetic plane wave is analyzed beyond the electric dipole approximation and taking into account the leading relativistic corrections to the Pauli equation. It…
Spin-dependent partial conductances are evaluated in a tight-binding description of electron transport in the presence of spin-orbit (SO) couplings, using transfer-matrix methods. As the magnitude of SO interactions increases, the…
The spin-orbital polarization of superconducting excitations in momentum space is shown to provide distinctive marks of unconventional pairing in the presence of inversion symmetry breaking.Taking the prototypical example of an electronic…
Stochasticity effects in the spin (de)polarization of an ultrarelativistic electron beam during photon emissions in a counterpropoagating ultrastrong focused laser pulse in the quantum radiation reaction regime are investigated. We employ a…
Spin angular momentum of a photon corresponds to a polarisation degree of freedom of lights, and such that various polarisation properties are coming from macroscopic manifestation of quantum-mechanical properties of lights. An orbital…
Semiconductor spin lasers are distinguished from their conventional counterparts by the presence of spin-polarized carriers. The transfer of angular momentum of the spin-polarized carriers to photons provides important opportunities for the…
The electronic spin precession in semiconductor dots is strongly affected by the spin-orbit coupling. We present a theory of the electronic spin resonance at low magnetic fields that predicts a strong dependence on the dot occupation, the…
