Suppressing spin relaxation in silicon
Oleg Chalaev, Yang Song, Hanan Dery
Uniaxial compressive strain along the [001] direction strongly suppresses the spin relaxation in silicon. When the strain level is large enough so that electrons are redistributed…
Donor-driven spin relaxation in multi-valley semiconductors
Yang Song, Oleg Chalaev, Hanan Dery
We present a theory for spin relaxation of electrons due to scattering off the central-cell potential of impurities in silicon. Taking into account the multivalley nature of the co…
Matrices, bases and matrix elements for cubic double crystallographic groups
Oleg Chalaev
Matrices of the irreducible representations of double crystallographic point groups O, Td, Ox{1,I} and Tdx{1,I} are derived. The characteristic polynomials (spinor bases) up to the…
Spin-orbit interaction from low-symmetry localized defects in semiconductors
Oleg Chalaev, G. Vignale, Michael E. Flatté
The presence of low-symmetry impurities or defect complexes in the zinc-blende direct-gap semiconductors (e.g. interstitials, DX-centers) results in a novel spin-orbit term in the…
Coulomb-induced Rashba spin-orbit coupling in semiconductor quantum wells
Oleg Chalaev, G. Vignale
In the absence of an external field, the Rashba spin-orbit interaction (SOI) in a two-dimensional electron gas in a semiconductor quantum well arises entirely from the screened ele…
Spin orbit-induced anisotropic conductivity of a disordered 2DEG
Oleg Chalaev, Daniel Loss
We present a semi-automated computer-assisted method to generate and calculate diagrams in the disorder averaging approach to disordered 2D conductors with intrinsic spin-orbit int…
