The generation, manipulation and detection of spin-polarized electrons in nanostructures define the main challenges of spin-based electronics[1]. Amongst the different approaches for spin generation and manipulation, spin-orbit coupling,…
We derive boundary conditions for the coupled spin-charge diffusion equations at a transmitting interface between two-dimensional electron systems with different strengths of the Rashba spin-orbit (SO) coupling $\alpha$, and an electric…
The transport equations for a two-dimensional electron gas with spin-orbit interaction are presented. The distribution function is a 2x2-matrix in the spin space. Particle and energy conservation laws determine the expressions for the…
We present a study of spin transport in charge and spin inhomogeneous semiconductor systems. In particular, we investigate the propagation of spin-polarized electrons through a boundary between two semiconductor regions with different…
We consider the magnetic response of a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) with a spin-orbit interaction to a long-wave-length electromagnetic excitation. We observe that the transverse electric field creates spin polarization perpendicular…
A spin projection scheme is presented which allows the decomposition of the electric conductivity into two different spin channels within fully relativistic $ab$ $initio$ transport calculations that account for the impact of spin-orbit…
We demonstrate theoretically that a coherent manipulation of electron spins in low-dimensional semiconductor structures with spin-orbit coupling by infrared radiation is possible. The proposed approach is based on using a dipole force…
We consider a two-dimensional electron gas in the presence of Rashba spin-orbit coupling, and study the effects of magnetic s-wave impurities and long-range non-magnetic disorder on the spin-charge dynamics of the system. We focus on…
We develop the microscopic theory of the extrinsic spin Hall conductivity of a two-dimensional electron gas, including skew-scattering, side-jump, and Coulomb interaction effects. We find that while the spin-Hall conductivity connected with…
An electron propagating through a solid carries spin angular momentum in addition to its mass and charge. Of late there has been considerable interest in developing electronic devices based on the transport of spin, which offer potential…
We considered the nonequlibrium spin dipoles induced around spin independent elastic scatterers by the intrinsic spin-Hall effect associated with the Rashba spin-orbit coupling. The normal to 2DEG spin polarization has been calculated in…
We consider the spin-Hall current in a disordered two-dimensional electron gas in the presence of Rashba spin-orbit interaction. We derive a generalized Kubo-Greenwood formula for the spin-Hall conductivity $\sigma$ and evaluate it in an…
The coupled kinetic equation for density and spin Wigner functions are derived including spin-orbit coupling, electric and magnetic field as well as selfconsistent Hartree meanfields suited for SU(2) transport. The interactions are assumed…
It is shown that the interplay of long-range disorder and in-plane magnetic field gives rise to an out-of-plane spin polarization and a finite spin Hall conductivity of the two-dimensional electron gas in the presence of Rashba spin-orbit…
We derive a drift-diffusion equation for spin polarization in semiconductors by consistently taking into account electric-field effects and nondegenerate electron statistics. We identify a high-field diffusive regime which has no analogue…
We provide a theoretical framework for the electric field control of the electron spin in systems with diffusive electron motion. The approach is valid in the experimentally important case where both intrinsic and extrinsic spin-orbit…
It is shown that the electron spin may not be conserved after a spin-independent scattering. This fact strongly limits the validity of the classical model of spin-up/spin-down bands, which has been used for description of magnetic…
We present a quantum Boltzmann equation analysis of the spin-Hall effect in a diffusive Rashba two-dimensional electron system. Within the framework of the self-consistent Born approximation, we consider the roles of disorder-induced…
Coupled spin-charge drift-diffusion equations are derived for a biased two-dimensional electron gas with weak Rashba spin-orbit interaction. The basic equations formally agree with recent results obtained for spin-orbit coupled small…
Rigorous coupled spin-charge drift-diffusion equations are derived from quantum-kinetic equations for the spin-density matrix that incorporate effects due to k-linear spin-orbit interaction, an in-plane electric field, and the elastic…
