Geometry Dependent Spin Conductance in Quantum Dots with Spin-Orbit Interaction — •Vitalij Lutsker1, Inanc Adagideli2, Matthias Scheid1, and Klaus Richter11Institut für Theoretische Physik, Universität Regensburg, D-93040 Regensburg, Germany — 2Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Sabanci University, 34956 Istanbul, Turkey

In a recent publication[1] it was demonstrated that the average two-terminal spin conductance of a cavity with Rashba spin-orbit interaction(SOI) depends on the orientation of the vector connecting the two terminals. This effect originates from an effect of the SOI on the electron dynamics, leading to a geometrical correlation, which survives in chaotic and diffusive dots. Here we present a systematic numerical analysis of this effect, based on a recursive Green’s function approach to transport. We study statistics of the spin conductance, its dependence on the number of leads, and the role of additional linear and cubic Dresselhaus terms.
