We consider theoretically transport in a spinfull one-channel interacting quantum wire placed in an external magnetic field. For the case of two point-like impurities embedded in the wire, under a small voltage bias the spin-polarized…
Spin effects in the transport properties of a quantum dot with spin-charge separation are investigated. It is found that the non-linear transport spectra are dominated by spin dynamics. Strong spin polarization effects are observed in a…
Motivated by the experiments by Zrenner et al. [Nature 418, 612 (2002)], we study the influence of relaxation processes on converting Rabi oscillations in a strongly biased single-quantum-dot photodiode into deterministic photocurrents. We…
Noninteracting electrons confined to a corrugated surface are investigated in magnetic field, and the associated effective Pauli equation is given analytically by the thin-layer quantization scheme. Interestingly, the Zeeman splitting gaps…
It is shown that in organic semiconductors where organic magnetoresistance (OMAR) is observed, the exchange interaction between electrons and holes localized at different molecules leads to dynamic spin polarization in the direction of the…
We show that resonant driving between the spin up and spin down states of an electron spin-qubit in a quantum dot reduces the occupancy of the dot through leakage to an appropriately tuned lead. A nearby charge sensor measuring the…
Spin injection and detection in silicon is a difficult problem, in part because the weak spin-orbit coupling and indirect gap preclude using standard optical techniques. We propose two ways to overcome this difficulty, and illustrate their…
Spin polarized transport through a quantum dot coupled to ferromagnetic electrodes with noncollinear magnetizations is discussed in terms of nonequilibrium Green functions formalism in the finite-U slave boson mean field approximation. The…
It has been predicted recently that an electron beam can be polarized when it flows adiabatically through a quantum point contact in a system with spin-orbit interaction. Here, we show that a simple transverse electron focusing setup can be…
It is shown that, for appropriate values of electron energy, the silicene dot can work as a controllable spin polarizer. The spin polarizer can polarize the spin of transmitted electrons from nearly pure down to nearly pure up by changing…
We consider resonant transmission through a finite-length quantum wire connected to leads via finite transparency junctions. The coherent electron transport is strongly modified by the Coulomb interaction. The low-temperature…
Manipulation of single spins is essential for spin-based quantum information processing. Electrical control instead of magnetic control is particularly appealing for this purpose, since electric fields are easy to generate locally on-chip.…
We develop a theory of spin-dependent phenomena in the streaming regime characterized by ballistic acceleration of electrons in the moderate electric field until they achieve the optical phonon energy and abruptly emit the phonons. It is…
The backscattering process of injected electrons on exchange-splitted levels of quantum well (QW) in ferromagnetic metal / insulator / semiconductor heterostructure is studied. It is found that, if one of the exchange-splitted levels lies…
The electrical injection of spin polarized electrons in a semiconductor can be achieved in principle by driving a current from a ferromagnetic metal, where current is known to be significantly spin polarized, into the semiconductor via…
A theory of spin-polarized electron transport in ferromagnet-semiconductor heterostructures, based on a unified semiclassical description of ballistic and diffusive transport in semiconductors, is outlined. The aim is to provide a framework…
We present a theory of quantum optical control of an electron spin in a single semiconductor quantum dot via spin-flip Raman transitions. We show how an arbitrary spin rotation may be achieved by virtual excitation of discrete or continuum…
When internal states of atoms are manipulated using coherent optical or radio-frequency (RF) radiation, it is essential to know the polarization of the radiation with respect to the quantization axis of the atom. We first present a…
To date, optical orientation of free-carrier spins and spin currents have been achieved by circularly polarized light, while the linearly polarized light has been used for optical alignment of electron momenta. Here we show that, in…
We investigate the photoinduced effect to the silicene, which is a topological insulator, by the circularly polarized light in off-resonance regime with a frequency much larger than the critical value (also much larger than the frequency…
