Suppose I have a 2x2 Hamiltonian describing a conducting channel, as a black box.
[tex]H_{Rashba}=\sigma_y k_x - \sigma_x k_y[/tex]
and also suppose I have an incident 2x1 wavefunction with up and down spin components, to this black box.
What I am trying to do is to write a 2x2 reflection (or transmission) matrix for the wavefunction that is incident to this region.
How can I do this? How do you go about doing such a problem? What are the methods or appropriate terminology for this kind of problem?
I hope the question is clear... Thanks in advance for any guidance.
(This is not homework) ( and I don't want the solution, just the method)
