Dissipationless Spin Current in Anisotropic p-Doped Semiconductors
arXiv:cond-mat/0311024 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.70.113301
Abstract
Recently, dissipationless spin current has been predicted for the p-doped semiconductors with spin-orbit coupling. Here we investigate the effect of spherical symmetry breaking on the dissipationless spin current, and obtain values of the intrinsic spin Hall conductivity for realistic semiconductor band structures with cubic symmetry.
