The two terminal conductance for two dimensional systems is calculated in the presence of the spin-orbit scattering. The level statistics of the transmission eigenvalue is shown to be sensitive to the asymmetry of the spin population in the lead. The nearest neighbor spacing is GUE instead of GSE when sufficiently large Zeeman splitting is assumed in one of the lead.

The effect of a magnetic field on Josephson current has been studied for a superconductor/normal-metal/superconductor (SNS) system, where N is a two-dimensional electron gas in a confining potential. It is found that the dependence of Josephson currents on the magnetic field are sensitive to the width of the normal metal. If the normal metal is wide and contains many channels (subbands), the current on a weak magnetic field shows a dependence similar to a Fraunhofer-pattern in SIS system and, as the field gets strong, it shows another type of oscillatory dependence on the field resulting from the Aharonov-Bohm interference between the edge states. As the number of channels decreases (i.e. normal metal gets narrower), however, the dependence in the region of the weak field deviates from a clear Fraunhofer pattern and the amplitude of the oscillatory dependence in the region of the strong field is reduced.
We study electron transport through a quantum dot, connected to non-magnetic leads, in a magnetic field. A super-Poissonian electron noise due to the effects of both interacting localized states and dynamic channel blockade is found when the Coulomb blockade is partially lifted. This is sharp contrast to the sub-Poissonian shot noise found in the previous studies for a large bias voltage, where the Coulomb blockade is completely lifted. Moreover, we show that the super-Poissonian shot noise can be suppressed by applying an electron spin resonance (ESR) driving field. For a sufficiently strong ESR driving field strength, the super-Poissonian shot noise will change to be sub-Poissonian.
A Datta-Das spin field-effect transistor is built of a heterostructure with a Rashba spin-orbit interaction (SOI) at the interface (or quantum well) separating two possibly magnetized reservoirs. The particle and spin currents between the two reservoirs are driven by chemical potentials that are (possibly) different for each spin direction. These currents are also tuned by varying the strength of the SOI, which changes the amount of the rotation of the spins of electrons crossing the heterostructure. Here we investigate the dependence of these currents on additional Zeeman fields on the heterostructure and on variations of the reservoir magnetizations. In contrast to the particle current, the spin currents are not necessarily conserved; an additional spin polarization is injected into the reservoirs. If a reservoir has a finite (equilibrium) magnetization, then we surprisingly find that the spin current into that reservoir can only have spins which are parallel to the reservoir magnetization, independent of all the other fields. This spin current can be enhanced by increasing the magnetization of the other reservoir, and can also be tuned by the SOI and the various magnetic fields. When only one reservoir is magnetized then the spin current into the other reservoir has arbitrary tunable size and direction. In particular, this spin current changes as the magnetization of the other reservoir is rotated. The optimal conditions for accumulating spin polarization on an unpolarized reservoir are to either apply a Zeeman field in addition to the SOI, or to polarize the other reservoir.
A continuum model of frustrated ferromagnets is analyzed in detail in the regime of low applied magnetic field, $H_0<1/4$, where the ground state is a spatially varying conical spiral. By changing variables to a corotating spin field, the model is reformulated as a gauged sigma model in a fixed background gauge, allowing the construction of stable isolated Skyrmions, and stable multi-Skyrmion clusters, which approach the conical ground state at spatial infinity. Owing to the spatial anisotropy induced by the ground state, these Skyrmions exhibit only discrete symmetries, and are of neither Neel nor Bloch type. These Skyrmions are continuously connected to the more familar solutions in the high field regime ($H_0>1/4$), acquiring axial symmetry in the limit $H_0rightarrow 1/4$. The propagation of small amplitude spin waves through the conical ground state is also analyzed and is found to depend strongly on both $H_0$ and propagation direction relative to the ground state. In contrast to spin waves in the high field regime ($H_0>1/4$) there is no spectral gap: waves may propagate with any angular frequency.
Using standard quantum network method, we analytically investigate the effect of Rashba spin-orbit coupling (RSOC) and a magnetic field on the spin transport properties of a polygonal quantum ring. Using Landauer-Buttiker formula, we have found that the polarization direction and phase of transmitted electrons can be controlled by both the magnetic field and RSOC. A device to generate a spin-polarized conductance in a polygon with an arbitrary number of sides is discussed. This device would permit precise control of spin and selectively provide spin filtering for either spin up or spin down simply by interchanging the source and drain.
