Abstract
The magnetoplasmon spectrum in a 2D electron plasma is investigated theoretically taking into account the spin—orbit interaction in the Rashba model. The expression is derived for the polarization operator in the semiclassical range of magnetic fields (in which the Fermi energy eF is much larger than the Landau quantum). Approximate analytic formulas are obtained for spin—plasmon branches. The dependences of plasma wave frequencies on the wavevector and magnetic field are calculated from a numerical solution of the dispersion equation. In addition, the magnetic field and frequency dependences of the plasmon absorption intensity are constructed. The absorption intensity at the peak is found to be sensitive to the spin—orbit interaction constant.
