Small-angle impurity scattering and the spin Hall conductivity in 2D systems
A. V. Shytov, E. G. Mishchenko, H. -A. Engel +1
An arbitrarily small concentration of impurities can affect the spin Hall conductivity in a two-dimensional semiconductor system. We develop a Boltzmann-like equation that can be u…
Spin current and polarization in impure 2D electron systems with spin-orbit coupling
E. G. Mishchenko, A. V. Shytov, B. I. Halperin
We derive the transport equations for two-dimensional electron systems with spin-orbit interaction and short-range spin-independent disorder. In the limit of slow spatial variation…
Electromechanical noise in a diffusive conductor
A. V. Shytov, L. S. Levitov, C. W. J. Beenakker
Electrons moving in a conductor can transfer momentum to the lattice via collisions with impurities and boundaries, giving rise to a fluctuating mechanical stress tensor. The root-…
Dissipative Landau-Zener Tunneling at Marginal Coupling
A. V. Shytov
The Landau-Zener transition in a two level system can be suppressed or enhanced by coupling to an environment, depending on the temperature and the environment spectral function. W…
Coulomb Blocking of Tunneling: From Zero-bias Anomaly to Coulomb Gap
L. S. Levitov, A. V. Shytov
We present an effective action approach for the problem of Coulomb blocking of tunneling. The method is applied to the ``strong coupling'' problem arising near zero bias, where per…
