We investigate theoretically the spin current and spin current induced electric field in a weak Rashba spin-orbit coupling quantum wire (QW) using a definition for spin current by means of scattering matrix. It is found that there exists two non-zero linear spin current density elements which have oscillation peaks at the center of QW and their strengths can be changed by the number of propagation modes and Rashba constant, respectively. Moreover, the spin current induced electric field has also been calculated and its strength is measurable with present technology with which can be used to detect spin current.

Rashba Spin

On the basis of Lee–Low–Pines (LLP) unitary transformation, the influence of external magnetic field, Rashba spin–orbit coupling and quantum size effect on the ground-state interaction energy of strong-coupling magnetopolarons in quantum disks (QDs) is studied by using the Tokuda improved linear combine operator method. The results show that the ground-state interaction energy of magnetopolarons consists of four parts: the energy caused by the confinement potential of QDs, interaction energy between the electron and external magnetic field, electron and longitudinal-optical (LO) phonon interaction energy and additional term of Rashba effect originating from phonons. The electron–LO phonon interaction energy Ee- ph and additional term of Rashba effect are always negative; the absolute value |Ee- ph | increases with increasing transverse confinement strength ω0, cyclotron frequency of external magnetic field ωc and electron–LO phonon coupling strength α, but decreases with increasing the thickness of QDs L; the state properties of magnetopolarons are closely linked with the sign of the ground-state interaction energy of magnetopolarons E int and change of E int with ωc, ω0, α and L. In addition, the vibration frequency of magnetopolarons λ increases with increasing ωc, ω0 and α, but decreases with increasing L. For the ground state of magnetopolarons in QDs, the electron–LO phonon interaction plays a significant role, meanwhile, the influence of Rashba spin–orbit coupling effect cannot be ignored.
