1 Variations on the Spin Hall Effect in a Two-dimensional Electron Gas Roberto Raimondi Dipartimento di Matematica e Fisica Disorder and Correlations in Quantum Systems September 2013 Sapienza, University of Rome
2 Introduction Main motivation The spin Hall effect (SHE) has emerged over the last decade as one of the most promising transport paradigm in spintronics. Perhaps, the main reason is due to the potential for an all-electrical control of the electron spin via the spin-orbit interaction. Outline 1 Brief historical sketch of SHE 2 SHE in a 2DEG with Rashba SOC 3 First variation: Interplay of intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms in a 2DEG 4 Second variation: Onsager relations in the presence of SOC 5 Third variation: spin Nernst effect 6 Conclusions and some personal recollections

8 SU(2) formulation: Technical point Combine SU(2) with Keldysh GF: Gorini et al. PRB 82, (2010) Introduce gauge invariant Green function In the standard U(1) case G(R,t;p,ε) G(R,t;p + ea,ε) For the SU(2) case define a locally covariant Green function G(R,t;p,ε) G(R,t;p,ε) 1 { A p,g(r,t;p,ε) } 2 Define distribution function in terms of the covariant Green function f (R,p,t) = 1 [ ] dε πi G(R,t;p,ε)
9 Interplay of intrinsic and extrinsic SHE in the 2DEG Effective Boltzmann equation Raimondi et al. Ann. Phys. (Berlin) 524, 153 (2012) ( [ t + p x m f p + 1 λ 2 ] 0 2τ 4 {p σ,f p} + 1 ) 2 {F p,.} f p = I 0 [f p ] + I l [f p ] l=0,4 side-jump I λ0 2 W pp p 4 skew-scattering I 2 { ee σ (p p), f } p ε p W pp (πn 0 u) λ 2 0 { p p σ,f p 4 p } Elliott-Yafet I 3 I 3 [f p ] = λ0 4 W pp p 16 ( p p ) 2 ( fp σ z f z p σ z ) Extra term I 4 λ0 2 8 { } W pp ε abc ( x ) a σ b,p c f p p cf p p Key observation Separation of terms: intrinsic SU(2)-fields in the hydrodynamic derivative, while extrinsic in the collision integral Spin-continuity equation (almost) unchanged and extra extrinsic drift terms t s y + 1 τ s s y = 2mαj z y ( j z y = 2mαDs y + σ sh R + σ sh sj ) + σss sh E x
10 Spin Hall conductivity due to both intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms The uniform steady-state σ sh = σ R sh + σ sj sh + σss sh 1 + τ s /τ DP when α 0, σ sh σ sh ss+sj since τ DP τ s /τ DP controlling parameter Raimondi and Schwab, EPL 87, (2009); Raimondi et al. Ann. Phys. 524, 153 (2012) Modified Edelstein effect s y = 2mατ ( DP 1 + τ DP /τ s λ 0 0 σr sh + σ sh sj s y = 2mατ DP σr sh E x Standard Edelstein effect ) + σss sh E x Some non trivial remarks Notice that σsj sh,σss sh λ0 2 as for standard AHE, while τ s 1 λ0 4 at α 0, it is enough to confine at order λ0 2 when α 0, one must consider terms at order λ0 4, otherwise one would get a paradoxical result that the limit α 0 is different from α 0
11 Spin current definition and Onsager relations Let me ask two questions: What is the correct definition of the spin current? Proposal to replace the conventional (and most natural) definition (which is not generally conserved because of e.g. spin-orbit interaction) J a i = 1 2 {v i,s a } with a conserved one Shi et al. PRL 96, (2006) J a i = J a i + P a i, i P a i = T a Are Onsager relations satisfied for SHE and ISHE? Observation that a spin current (which may induce a ISHE) may be driven by different external spin-dependent (SU(2)) potentials Wang et al. PRB 85, (2012)... and answer that the two issues are intimately related Gorini et al. PRL 109, (2012) Both definitions are legitimate (provided being careful) Connection between spin current definition and external driving field
12 How to see this Consider both the spin-vector gauge and spin-scalar gauge H V = H 0 + J z i A z i, A z i = te z i H S = H 0 + τz 2 Ψz, Ψ z = r i E z i, Perform a gauge transformation from the scalar to the vector one ( U = exp i 1 ) 2 τz χ In general: H S = H 0 + Ji z Ai a,ji z = ī [ τ z ] h 2 r i,h S Note: only if H S commutes with τ z the current reduces to the conventional one
13 Results in practice Rashba 2DEG Using the conventional current σ sh (ω) = γσ e Using the conserved current σ sh (ω) = γσ e iω + τs 1 iω + τdp 1 + τ 1 s iω iω τdp 1 + τ 1 s iω + 2τDP 1 iω + τdp 1 +. τ 1 s σ Drude conductivity γ = γ intr + γ ss + γ sj charge-spin coupling parameter γ intr = mα 2 τ, γ sj = λ 2 0 m 4τ γ ss = (λ 0p F ) 2 (2πN 0 v) 16 τdp 1 Dyakonov-Perel relaxation τs 1 Elliott-Yafet relaxation Rashba 2DHG Hughes et al. PRB 74, (2006) σ sh = γσ e, σ(ω) = γσ iω e iω + τdp 1, γ = 6 α 3 kf 4 mτ Experiment should tell which current is coupled to an external probe

15 Phenomenological considerations and main result Charge and heat currents j x = L 11 E x + L 12 ( x T ) Electrical conductivity L 11 = σ and electric thermopower S L 12 /L 11 L 12 = el T σ with Lorenz number L = π 2 k 2 B /3e2 and σ = µ σ, µ Spin and heat currents in a simple situation Assume inversion symmetry for a homogeneous and non-ferromagnetic material in the absence of magnetic fields M. I. Dyakonov, Phys. Rev. Lett. 99, (2007): j z y = γj x j z y = L s 11 E x + L s 12 ( x T ), S s L s 12 /Ls 11 S s = S Spin and charge thermopowers coincide but what about when Rashba SOC is present? S s = SR s with R s depending on the various competing SO mechanisms R so 3 can be achieved, in principle, in GaAs samples with Rashba SO and extrinsic mechanisms heat-to-spin conversion could be more efficient than heat-to-charge
16 Detail: spin equivalent of the Mott formula Same range of validity of the Wiedemann-Franz law based on single-particle description of transport, Fermi statistics of carriers, elastic scattering (G. V. Chester and Thellung, Proc. Phys. Soc. London 77, 1005 (1961; M. Jonson and G. D. Mahan, Phys. Rev. B 21, 4223 (1980); J. S. Langer, Phys. Rev. B 128, 110 (1962).)

17 The spin thermopower S s of a disordered 2D-electron gas Borge et al. PRB 87, (2013) Each panel shows the ratio S s /S as a function of the ratio α/β (Rashba / Dresselhaus ) for a given Elliott-Yafet scattering strength, strong to weak from top left to bottom right Ss/S Ss/S τ EY τ D DP τ EY τ D DP = 0.1 = α/β τ EY τ D DP τ EY τ D DP = 1 = α/β Magnetic scattering is strongest for the dotted curve, τ sf /τdp D = 1, and strong (weak) for the dashed (solid) curves, τ sf /τdp D = 2,3(10,20,30). Panel 3 corresponds to standard GaAs mobility µ = 10 4 cm 2 /Vs density n = cm 2 effective extrinsic wavelength λ 0 = cm Dresselhaus coupling constant hβ = evm Then γ ss γ intr,γ sj, τ EY τ D DP.

Moro 2, Roma Italy Received 7 February 2001; revised manuscript received 18 May 2001; published 27 November 2001 Spin-orbit coupling due to structure inversion asymmetry leads to a characteristic anisotropy in the magnetoconductance of two-dimensional metals. By calculating the Drude conductivity in the case of a realistic spin-orbit coupling, for a system near the metal-insulator transition we find an anisotropy which is of the order of several percent. This agrees with recent experiments. p i /m i. The equation for the momentum independent part of the current vertex reads i i ss ss 1 2 N 0 p ab G sa R i ab G A bs. 14 One observes that for a weak magnetic field the quantities become very small, so that J RA p/m, i.e., the anomalous velocity is canceled by the vertex corrections. Only for fields which are at least of the order of the Fermi energy does an Happy Birthday Claudio!
