Abstract

An idea for construction of two spintronic single-electron nanodevices is presented and supported by a quantum-mechanical simulation of their operation. The first device selects electrons of a given spin orientation and the other performs the spin read out. The operation of proposed devices exploits the spin-dependent deflection of electron trajectories induced by the spin-orbit Rashba coupling and does not require application of an external magnetic field. The operation of the nanodevice requires application of weak voltages applied to the electrodes only.
