This paper is a review of two-dimensional electron dynamics in microscopically inhomogeneous magnetic fields, focusing on magnetic potentials varying on scales smaller than the mean free path. It covers early work on localization in random magnetic fields, methods to fabricate magnetic potentials, and drift-diffusion…

This theoretical study uses a nonequilibrium Green function approach to analyze current-induced spin polarization in a two-dimensional heavy-hole system with cubic Rashba spin-orbit coupling under in-plane electric and magnetic fields. The authors report monotonic decreases in longitudinal conductivity with…
