The present review analyses and compares various types of dissipationless spin
transport:(1) Superfluid transport, when the spin-current state is a metastable state (a local …

The intrinsic spin Hall effect in semiconductors has developed to a remarkably lively and
rapidly growing branch of research in the field of semiconductor spintronics. In this article we …

We consider a ballistic Josephson junction with a quantum point contact in a two-
dimensional electron gas with Rashba spin-orbit coupling. The point contact acts as a spin …

We propose a novel scheme to efficiently polarize and manipulate the electron spin in a
quantum dot. This scheme is based on the spin-orbit interaction and it possesses following …

We investigate two closely related subjects:(i) the existence of a pure persistent spin current
without an accompanying charge current in a semiconducting mesoscopic device with a …

The controlled generation of localized spin densities is a key enabler of semiconductor
spintronics In this work, we study spin Hall effect induced edge-spin accumulation in a two …

We review recent developments of formulations to calculate the Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya (DM)
interaction from first principles. In particular, we focus on three approaches. The first one …

We investigate the equilibrium property of a mesoscopic ring with a spin-orbit interaction. It is
well known that, for a normal mesoscopic ring threaded by a magnetic flux, the electron …

Spin–orbit interaction gives rise to a splitting of surface states via the Rashba effect, and in
topological insulators it leads to the existence of topological surface states. The resulting …

Spin Hall effects are a collection of phenomena, resulting from spin-orbit coupling, in which
an electrical current flowing through a sample can lead to spin transport in a perpendicular …
