| dc.description | We present a quantum Boltzmann equation analysis of the spin-Hall effect in a diffusive Rashba two-dimensional electron system. Within the framework of the self-consistent Born approximation, we consider the roles of disorder-induced quasiclassical relaxation, collisional broadening of the quasiparticles, and the intracollisional field effect in regard to spin-Hall dynamics. We present an analytical proof that the spin-Hall current vanishes, independently of the coupling strength, of the quasiparticle broadening, of temperature and of the specific form of the isotropic scattering potential. A sum relation of the collision terms in a helicity basis is also examined. | |
