Tunneling experiment is a key technique for detecting Majorana fermion in solid state systems. We use Keldysh non-equilibrium Green function method to study multi-lead tunneling in superconducting nanowire with Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit couplings. A zero-bias textit{dc} conductance peak appears in our setup which signifies the existence of Majorana fermion and is in accordance with previous experimental results on InSb nanowire. Interestingly, due to the exotic property of Majorana fermion, there exists a hole transmission channel which makes the currents asymmetric at the left and right leads. The textit{ac} current response mediated by Majorana fermion is also studied here. To discuss the impacts of Coulomb interaction and disorder on the transport property of Majorana nanowire, we use the renormalization group method to study the phase diagram of the wire. It is found that there is a topological phase transition under the interplay of superconductivity and disorder. We find that the Majorana transport is preserved in the superconducting-dominated topological phase and destroyed in the disorder-dominated non-topological insulator phase.

We theoretically investigate the spin-dependent Seebeck effect in an Aharonov-Bohm mesoscopic ring in the presence of both Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit interactions under magnetic flux perpendicular to the ring. We apply the Greens function meth
od to calculate the spin Seebeck coefficient employing the tight-binding Hamiltonian. It is found that the spin Seebeck coefficient is proportional to the slope of the energy-dependent transmission coefficients. We study the strong dependence of spin Seebeck coefficient on the Fermi energy, magnetic flux, strength of spin-orbit coupling, and temperature. Maximum spin Seebeck coefficients can be obtained when the strengths of Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit couplings are slightly different. The spin Seebeck coefficient can be reduced by increasing temperature and disorder.
When the Rashba and Dresslhaus spin-orbit coupling are both presented for a two-dimensional electron in a perpendicular magnetic field, a striking resemblance to anisotropic quantum Rabi model in quantum optics is found. We perform a generalized Rash
ba coupling approximation to obtain a solvable Hamiltonian by keeping the nearest-mixing terms of Laudau states, which is reformulated in the similar form to that with only Rashba coupling. Each Landau state becomes a new displaced-Fock state with a displacement shift instead of the original Harmonic oscillator Fock state, yielding eigenstates in closed form. Analytical energies are consistent with numerical ones in a wide range of coupling strength even for a strong Zeeman splitting. In the presence of an electric field, the spin conductance and the charge conductance obtained analytically are in good agreements with the numerical results. As the component of the Dresselhaus coupling increases, we find that the spin Hall conductance exhibits a pronounced resonant peak at a larger value of the inverse of the magnetic field. Meanwhile, the charge conductance exhibits a series of plateaus as well as a jump at the resonant magnetic field. Our method provides an easy-to-implement analytical treatment to two-dimensional electron gas systems with both types of spin-orbit couplings.
Using chiral decomposition, we are able to find analytically the zero modes and the conditions for such modes to exist in the Kitaev ladder model and superconducting nanowires with Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling. As a result, we are able to calculat
e the number of zero modes in these systems for arbitrary given parameters in the semi-infinite limit. Moreover, we find that when suitable resonance condition is satisfied exact zero modes exist even in finite systems contrary to the common belief.
The interplay between Rashba, Dresselhaus and Zeeman interactions in a quantum well submitted to an external magnetic field is studied by means of an accurate analytical solution of the Hamiltonian, including electron-electron interactions in a sum r
ule approach. This solution allows to discuss the influence of the spin-orbit coupling on some relevant quantities that have been measured in inelastic light scattering and electron-spin resonance experiments on quantum wells. In particular, we have evaluated the spin-orbit contribution to the spin splitting of the Landau levels and to the splitting of charge- and spin-density excitations. We also discuss how the spin-orbit effects change if the applied magnetic field is tilted with respect to the direction perpendicular to the quantum well.
Skyrmions are topological spin textures of interest for fundamental science and applications. Previous theoretical studies have focused on systems with broken bulk inversion symmetry, where skyrmions are stabilized by easy-axis anisotropy. We investi
gate here systems that break surface inversion symmetry, in addition to possible broken bulk inversion. This leads to two distinct Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) terms with strengths $D_perp$, arising from Rashba spin-orbit coupling (SOC), and $D_parallel$ from Dresselhaus SOC. We show that skyrmions become progressively more stable with increasing $D_perp/D_parallel$, extending into the regime of easy-plane anisotropy. We find that the spin texture and topological charge density of skyrmions develops nontrivial spatial structure, with quantized topological charge in a unit cell given by a Chern number. Our results give a design principle for tuning Rashba SOC and magnetic anisotropy to stabilize skyrmions in thin films, surfaces, interfaces and bulk magnetic materials that break mirror symmetry.
