We compute analytically the quantum correction to the Drude conductivity for electrons in zincblende type nanorods following former approaches [1,2]. In the systems of consideration a tubular quantum well is formed below the nanorods surface which can be a result of Fermi surface pinning [3] or band mismatch in core/shell nanowires [4]. The confinement gives rise to both Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling (SOC) which we comprise in our calculations and compare for wires of standard growth directions ⟨111⟩, ⟨001⟩ and ⟨110⟩. The motion on the quasi two-dimensional surface is considered diffusive in both in-plane directions. By fitting the theory to experimental data we extract SOC strength as well as dephasing and relaxation rates.
