  • Title: Intrinsic spin Hall edges.
    Author: Adagideli I, Bauer GE.
    Journal: Phys Rev Lett; 2005 Dec 16; 95(25):256602. PubMed ID: 16384487.
    Abstract:
    The prediction of intrinsic spin Hall currents by Murakami et al. and Sinova et al. raised many questions about methods of detection and the effect of disorder. We focus on a contact between a Rashba-type spin-orbit coupled region with a normal two-dimensional electron gas and show that the spin Hall currents, though vanishing in the bulk of the sample, can be recovered from the edges. We also show that the current-induced spin accumulation in the spin-orbit coupled system diffuses into the normal region and contributes to the spin current in the leads.
