The effective electric fields of these terms as well as $B$ have perpendicular and radial components. The interplay between them and $B$ and their influence on the spectrum is studied. The transmission through such a ring, with two leads connected to it, is evaluated as a function of the SOI strengths and of the orientations of these fields. The Rashba and Dresselhaus terms affect the transmission in different ways. The transmission through a series of rings with different radii and with SOI in both arms of the rings or only in one of them is also evaluated. For weak magnetic fields $B\\leq 1$ T the influence of the Zeeman term on the transmission, assessed by perturbation theory, is negligible.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2006-08-18T04:05:18.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "spin-orbit interaction", "spin-dependent magnetotransport", "transmission", "linear dresselhaus terms", "dresselhaus terms affect" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2006cond.mat..8374W" } } }
