The Rashba effect can arise in a crystal lacking inversion symmetry—inversion symmetry is invariance of an object after reflection around a point—as spin up and spin down electrons separate ...

Abstract: Seismic impedance inversion plays a crucial role in obtaining underground physical properties and enhancing seismic exploration accuracy. In recent years, semi-supervised methods have ...

that the crystal has no center of inversion; 2. that it has no plane of symmetry perpendicular to the direction in question; 3. that it has no axis of symmetry of an even order perpendicular to this ...
