Spin-Galvanic Effect in Quantum Wells
2003
It is shown that a homogeneous non-equlibrium spin-polarization in semiconductor heterostructures results in an electric current. The microscopic origin of the effect is an inherent asymmetry of spin-flip scattering in systems with lifted spin degeneracy caused by k-linear terms in the Hamiltonian.
