Optical manipulation of Rashba-split 2-dimensional electron gas
The major challenge for the development of spin based information processing is to obtain efficient ways of controlling spin. Here, Michiardi et al show that the Rashba spin-splitting at the surface of Bi2Se3 topological insulator can be controlled via optical pulses on picosecond timescales.
