Optoelectric spin injection in semiconductor heterostructures without ferromagnet

We have shown that electron spin density can be generated by a dc current flowing across a $pn$ junction with an embedded asymmetric quantum well. Spin polarization is created in the quantum well by radiative electron-hole recombination when the conduction electron momentum distribution is shifted with respect to the momentum distribution of holes in the spin split valence subbands. Spin current appears when the spin polarization is injected from the quantum well into the $n$-doped region of the $pn$ junction. The accompanied emission of circularly polarized light from the quantum well can serve as a spin polarization detector.

Waveguide diffusion modes and slowdown of D'yakonov-Perel' spin relaxation in narrow 2-D semiconductor channels

We have shown that in narrow 2D semiconductor channels the D'yakonov-Perel' spin relaxation rate is strongly reduced. This relaxation slowdown appears in special waveguide diffusion modes which determine the propagation of spin density in long channels. Experiments are suggested to detect the theoretically predicted effects. A possible application is a field effect transistor operated with injected spin current.

The effect of the spin-orbit geometric phase on the spectrum of Aharonov-Bohm oscillations in a semiconductor mesoscopic ring

Taking into account the spin precession caused by the spin-orbit splitting of the conduction band in semiconductor quantum wells, we have calculated the Fourier spectra of conductance and state-density correlators in a 2D ring, in order to investigate the structure of the main peak corresponding to Aharonov-Bohm oscillations. In narrow rings the peak structure is determined by the competition between the spin-orbit and the Zeeman couplings. The latter leads to a peak broadening, and produces the peak splitting in the state-density Fourier spectrum. We have found an oscillation of the peak intensity as a function of the spin-orbit coupling constant, and this effect of the quantum interference caused by the spin geometric phase is destroyed with increasing Zeeman coupling.

The effects of compressible and incompressible states on the FIR-absorption of quantum wires and dots in a magnetic field

We investigate the effects of compressible and incompressible states on the FIR-absorption of quantum wires and dots in a homogeneous perpendicular magnetic field. The electron-electron interaction is treated in the Hartree approximation at a finite low temperature. The calculated dispersion of the collective excitations reproduces several experimental results.

Collective Excitations in Realistic Quantum Wires

We have used the Hartree-Fock Random Phase Approximation (HF-RPA) to study the interacting electron gas in a quantum wire. The spectra of intersubband spin-flip excitations reveal a considerable red shift with respect to single-particle HF energies. That signals on appearance of collective intersubband spind-density excitations due to the exchange interaction. The long wavelength dispersions of the intrasubband collective spin-density excitations are linear, but the sound velocities are renormalised due to the exchange interaction and screening. The in-phase intrasubband charge-density excitation has the long wavelength form $q[-\ln(q)]^{1/2}$. We found good qualitative agreement of our results with experimental observations.
