Near-surface two-dimensional electron gases on the topological insulator Bi$_2$Te$_2$Se are induced by electron doping and studied by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. A pronounced spin-orbit splitting is observed for these states.…

The manipulation of the Rashba spin-splitting is crucial for the development of nanospintronic technology. Here, it is proposed that the Rashba spin-splitting can be turned on and off by reversing electric-field direction. By the…

The spin-orbit -induced spin splitting of energy bands in low symmetry compounds (the Rashba Effect) has a long-standing relevance to spintronic applications and to the fundamental understanding of symmetry breaking in solids, yet the…

We present a theory pertaining to the asymptotic behavior of Rashba energy splitting in a quantum-well state (QWS). First, unlike previous studies, we derive $\textbf{k}$-linear Rashba term from a first-principles Hamiltonian in a…

It is shown that a flux of unpolarized electrons across a symmetric double barrier quantum well induces a spin polarization inside the well. Besides, the transmitted current acquires a spin polarized component and the spin-Hall current…

We study the spin polarization of mixed and entangled electron states in a four probe/beam splitter geometry with local Rashba and Dresselhaus interactions. A pair of maximally entangled electrons collides with the beam splitter and enters…

A self-consistent treatment of the spin-Hall effect requires consideration of the spin-orbit coupling and electron-impurity scattering on equal footing. This is done here for the experimentally relevant case of a [110] GaAs quantum well…
