Spin Orientation of Holes in Quantum Wells
R. Winkler, Dimitrie Culcer, S. J. Papadakis +2
This paper reviews the spin orientation of spin-3/2 holes in quantum wells. We discuss the Zeeman and Rashba spin splitting in hole systems that are qualitatively different from th…

Nanospintronics meets relativistic quantum physics: Ubiquity of Zitterbewegung effects
U. Zülicke, R. Winkler, J. Bolte
We present a unified description of zitterbewegung-like phenomena for electron and hole systems showing Rashba spin splitting as well as for electrons in single-layer and bilayer g…

Magnetic focusing of charge carriers from spin-split bands: Semiclassics of a Zitterbewegung effect
U. Zuelicke, J. Bolte, R. Winkler
We present a theoretical study of the interplay between cyclotron motion and spin splitting of charge carriers in solids. While many of our results apply more generally, we focus e…
