Abstract

Spin-orbit interaction (SOI) connecting an electronic spin with its momentum is crucial for numerous fundamental physical researches and their applications, including quantum spin Hall effect, Majorana Fermions and spin-orbit qubits. By breaking structural inversion symmetry, Rashba spin-orbit inter...
