Abstract
We discuss the quasiclassical Green function method for a two-dimensional electron gas in the presence of spin–orbit coupling, with emphasis on the meaning of the ξ -integration procedure. As an application of our approach, we demonstrate how the spin-Hall conductivity, in the presence of spin-flip scattering, can be easily obtained from the spin-density continuity equation.
