Rashba coupling and spin switching through surface states of Dirac semimetals
We study the effect of the Rashba spin–orbit coupling on the Fermi arcs of topological Dirac semimetals. The Rashba coupling is induced by breaking the inversion symmetry at the surface. Remarkably, this coupling could be enhanced by the interaction with the substrate and controlled by an external e...
