It is shown that it results in spin polarization of left and right outgoing electron waves. Consequently, incoming electron wave of a proper polarization induces voltage drop perpendicularly to the direct current flow between source and drain of the considered four-terminal cross-structure. The resulting Hall-like resistance is estimated to be of the order of 10^-3 - 10^-2 h/e^2 for technologically available structures. The effect becomes more pronounced in the vicinity of resonances where Hall-like resistance changes its sign as function of the Fermi energy.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1999-06-10T14:38:21.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "spin-orbit interaction", "hall-like effect", "proper polarization induces voltage drop", "electron transport properties" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
