Abstract
Electronic transport in closed loop structures is addressed within a tight-binding formalism and in the presence of both the Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit (SO) interactions. It has been shown that any one of the SO fields can be estimated precisely if the other one is known, by observing either the transmission resonance or anti-resonance of unpolarized electrons. The result is obtained through an exact analytic calculation for a simple square loop and through a numerically exact formulation for a circular ring. The sensitivity of the transport properties on the geometry of the interferometer is discussed in details.
