Anisotropic Rashba coupling to polar modes in KTaO3

Motivated by the discovery of superconductivity in KTaO _3 -based heterostructures, we study a pairing mechanism based on spin-orbit assisted coupling between the conduction electrons and the ferroelectric (FE) modes present in the material. We use ab initio frozen-phonon computations to show a line...
