We study the spin-dependent conductance of ballistic mesoscopic
rings in the presence of orientationally inhomogeneous magnetic
fields. For the proposed set up we show that even a small Zeeman
splitting can lead to a spin polarization of the current up to
45%. Making use of the spin-switch effect [1] we propose an
integrated device consisting of two rings connected in series
which, in principle, is able to both create and coherently
control spin-polarized currents at low temperatures [2].
