Rashba-Effect and Intrinsic Spin Hall Effect

[QUOTE="TeethWhitener, post: 6263946, member: 511972"] Spintronics isn't really my field, but I'll give it a shot. Both the Rashba effect and the spin Hall effect have their origins in spin-orbit coupling. For the Rashba effect, the presence of an electric field perpendicular to a 2D conductor causes the electrons to experience a magnetic field, which the electron spins interact with. This leads to a momentum dependence of the spin. For the spin Hall effect, current in a wire will induce a magnetic field around that wire. The electron spins will couple with that magnetic field and this coupling will cause opposite spins to move in different directions. That's about the extent of my knowledge on that topic. [/QUOTE]
