摘要
Novel quantum phases are found in the ground state of Rashba ring: the orbital magnetic phase (OMP), non-OMP, pseudo-OMP and quasi-OMP, which depend on the spin-orbit interaction (SOI) strength, electron number and ring size. We give the phase diagram and their quantum-phase-transition conditions. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
