Abstract

We study the spin edge states, induced by the combined effect of spin-orbit interaction (SOI) and hard-wall confining potential, in a two-dimensional electron system, exposed to a perpendicular magnetic field. We find an exact solution of the problem and show that the spin -resolved edge states are separated in space. The SOI-generated rearrangement of the spectrum results in a peaked behavior of ...
