The spin Hall effect is a phenomenon of inducing spin current by an external electric field. We recently proposed that this effect can occur in p-type semiconductors without relying upon any disorder scattering [S. Murakami et al., Science 301, 1348 (2003)]. This intrinsic effect is due to the “Berry phase in momentum space”, representing topological structure of the Bloch band structure. We ex...
