Spin-orbit interaction is usefully classified as extrinsic or intrinsic depending on its origin: the potential due to random impurities (extrinsic), or the crystalline potential associated with the band or device structure (intrinsic). In this paper we will show how by using a SU(2) formulation the two sources of spin-orbit interaction may be described in an elegant and unified way. As a result we obtain a simple description of the interplay of the two types of spin-orbit interaction, and a physically transparent explanation of the vanishing of the d.c. spin Hall conductivity in a Rashba two-dimensional electron gas when spin relaxation is neglected, and its reinstatement when spin relaxation is allowed. Furthermore, we obtain an explicit formula for the transverse spin polarization created by an electric current, which generalizes the standard formula obtained by Edelstein and Aronov and Lyanda-Geller by including extrinsic spin-orbit interaction and spin relaxation.
Using time-resolved Faraday rotation, the drift-induced spin-orbit Field of a two-dimensional electron gas in an InGaAs quantum well is measured. Including measurements of the electron mobility, the Dresselhaus and Rashba coefficients are determined
Spin-orbit coupling induced anisotropies of plasmon dynamics are investigated in two-dimensional semiconductor structures. The interplay of the linear Bychkov-Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit interactions drastically affects the plasmon spectrum: th
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 electric curren
The Wigner-crystal phase of two-dimensional electrons interacting via the Coulomb repulsion and subject to a strong Rashba spin-orbit coupling is investigated. For low enough electronic densities the spin-orbit band splitting can be larger than the z
The formation of novel two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) with high mobility in metal/amorphous interfaces has motivated an ongoing debate regarding the formation and novel characteristics of these 2DEGs. Here we report an optical study, based on in
