Magnetic focusing of charge carriers in two-dimensional systems provides a solid state
version of a mass spectrometer. In the presence of a spin-orbit interaction, the first focusing …

In two-dimensional systems with a spin-orbit interaction, magnetic focusing can be used to
create a spatial separation of particles with different spin. Here we measure hole magnetic …

Transverse magnetic focussing is the solid state equivalent of a mass spectrometer. It is
unique among 2D measurement techniques as it is able to measure a well defined section …

Spatially separating electrons of different spins and efficiently generating spin currents are
crucial steps towards building practical spintronics devices. Transverse magnetic focusing is …
