Possible Occurrence of Superconductivity by the <i>π</i>-flux Dirac String Formation Due to Spin-Twisting Itinerant Motion of Electrons
We show that the Rashba spin-orbit interaction causes spin-twisting itinerant motion of electrons in metals and realizes the quantized cyclotron orbits of conduction electrons without an external magnetic field. From the view point of the Berry connection, the cause of this quantization is the appea...
