Spin-dependent transport in waveguides with spatially modulated strengths of the Rashba and Dresselhaus terms of the spin-orbit interaction
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We study electron transport through waveguides (WGs) in which the strengths of the Rashba $(\ensuremath{\alpha})$ and Dresselhaus $(\ensuremath{\beta})$ terms of the spin-orbit interaction (SOI) vary in space. Subband mixing, due to lateral confinement, is taken into account only between the two first subbands. For sufficiently narrow WGs the transmission $T$ exhibits a squarelike shape as a function of $\ensuremath{\alpha}$ or $\ensuremath{\beta}$. Particular attention is paid to the case of equal SOI strengths, $\ensuremath{\alpha}=\ensuremath{\beta}$, for which spin-flip processes are expected to decrease. The transmission exhibits resonances as a function of the length of a SOI-free region separating two regions with SOI present, that are most pronounced for $\ensuremath{\alpha}=\ensuremath{\beta}$. The sign of $\ensuremath{\alpha}$ strongly affects the spin-up and spin-down transmissions. The results show that the main effect of subband mixing is to shift the transmission resonances and to decrease the transmission from one spin state to another. The effect of possible band offsets between regions that have different SOI strengths and effective masses is also discussed.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
