Abstract

The magnetoresistance of a three-dimensional Rashba metal placed on top of a ferromagnetic insulator is theoretically investigated. In addition to the intrinsic Rashba spin-orbit interaction, we consider extrinsic spin-orbit coupling via side-jump and skew scattering, as well as Elliott-Yafet spin relaxation. The latter is anisotropic due to the mass anisotropy which reflects the ...
