In this work its high-temperature counterpart, phonon skew scattering, which is expected to be of foremost experimental relevance, is investigated. In particular, the phonon skew scattering spin Hall conductivity is found to be practically $T$-independent for temperatures above the Debye temperature $T_D$. As a consequence, a high-$T$ linear behavior of the spin Hall angle demonstrates the dominance of extrinsic spin-orbit scattering only if the intrinsic spin splitting is smaller than the temperature.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-01-13T18:04:43.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "spin hall effects", "spin hall angle demonstrates", "phonon skew scattering spin hall", "skew scattering spin hall conductivity", "temperature" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv150103092G" } } }
