Abstract

We study the spin-charge coupled transport in a two-dimensional electron system using the method of quasiclassical (ξ-integrated) Green’s functions. In particular we derive the Eilenberger equation in the presence of a generic spin-orbit field. The method allows us to study spin and charge transport from ballistic to diffusive regimes and continuity equations for spin and charge are automatically ...
