Uncovering and tailoring hidden Rashba spin–orbit splitting in centrosymmetric crystals

The Dresselhaus and Rashba effects have traditionally been expected only in non-centrosymmetric systems but recent work has shown that they can exist in some centrosymmetric materials. Here the authors show that the so-called hidden Rashba effect originates from wavefunction segregation enforced by...

Sumario:The Dresselhaus and Rashba effects have traditionally been expected only in non-centrosymmetric systems but recent work has shown that they can exist in some centrosymmetric materials. Here the authors show that the so-called hidden Rashba effect originates from wavefunction segregation enforced by local symmetries.
