Quantitative analysis on electric dipole energy in Rashba band splitting
We report on quantitative comparison between the electric dipole energy and the Rashba band splitting in model systems of Bi and Sb triangular monolayers under a perpendicular electric field. We used both first-principles and tight binding calculations on p-orbitals with spin-orbit coupling. First-principles calculation shows Rashba band splitting in both systems. It also shows asymmetric charg...
متن کاملSwitchable S = 1/2 and J = 1/2 Rashba bands in ferroelectric halide perovskites.
The Rashba effect is spin degeneracy lift originated from spin-orbit coupling under inversion symmetry breaking and has been intensively studied for spintronics applications. However, easily implementable methods and corresponding materials for directional controls of Rashba splitting are still lacking. Here, we propose organic-inorganic hybrid metal halide perovskites as 3D Rashba systems driv...
متن کاملStructural influence on the Rashba-type spin splitting in surface alloys
The Bi/Ag(111), Pb/Ag(111), and Sb/Ag(111) surface alloys exhibit a two-dimensional band structure with a strongly enhanced Rashba-type spin splitting, which is in part attributed to the structural asymmetry resulting from an outward relaxation of the alloy atoms. In order to gain further insight into the spin splitting mechanism, we have experimentally determined the outward relaxation of the ...
متن کاملEvidence for partial quenching of orbital angular momentum upon complex formation in the infrared spectrum of OH-acetylene.
The entrance channel leading to the addition reaction between the hydroxyl radical and acetylene has been examined by spectroscopic characterization of the asymmetric CH stretching band of the pi-hydrogen bonded OH-acetylene reactant complex. The infrared action spectrum observed at 3278.6 cm(-1) (origin) consists of seven peaks of various intensities and widths, and is very different from thos...
متن کاملHierarchical spin-orbital polarization of a giant Rashba system
The Rashba effect is one of the most striking manifestations of spin-orbit coupling in solids and provides a cornerstone for the burgeoning field of semiconductor spintronics. It is typically assumed to manifest as a momentum-dependent splitting of a single initially spin-degenerate band into two branches with opposite spin polarization. Combining polarization-dependent and resonant angle-resol...
