Kinetic theory of spin dependent transport with strong spin-orbit scattering

半导体自旋动力学的理论描述需要强自旋轨道耦合的输运理论。非常成功的是半经典的方法，如玻尔兹曼方程和-特别是在简并电子系统中-所谓的准经典绿色函数。在本项目中，这些方法将被应用于诸如电压诱导自旋积累、自旋霍尔效应、自旋退相和自旋弛豫等问题。

The theoretical description of spin dynamics in semiconductors necessitates a transport theory for strong spin-orbit coupling. Very successful are semiclassical approaches like the Boltzmann equation and – in particular in degenerate electron systems – the so-called quasiclassical Green’s functions. In this project these approaches will be applied to questions like voltage induced spin accumulation, spin-Hall effect, spin dephasing and spin relaxation.
