The salient feature is that, apart from the usual spin-Hall conductivity \\sigma^z_{xy} which corresponds to the induction of out-of-plane spin-current due to the application of transverse charge current, there is a novel spin-Hall conductivity \\sigma^\\perp_{xy} which arises due to the induction of transverse spin-polarized current in the transverse direction by the application of in-plane spin-polarized current. This phenomenon which we call as `spin-spin' Hall effect is a spin analog of conventional Hall effect, but with no magnetic field. This contribution may be understood through the spin-diffusive equation.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v5", "updated": "2006-11-15T07:03:05.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "two-dimensional electron systems", "conventional hall effect", "rashba spin-orbit interaction", "usual spin-hall conductivity", "spin-polarized current" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
