ABSTRACT

This book is focused on the spintronic properties of III-V nitride semiconductors. Particular attention is paid to the comparison between zinc blende GaAs- and wurtzite GaN-based structures, where the Rashba spin-orbit interaction plays a crucial role in voltage-controlled spin engineering. The book also deals with topological insulators, a new cla
