Non-parabolicity, anisotropy, and break of valley degeneracy are included. In (111) QWs, it is shown that for the valley along the growth direction the Rashba splitting is like the one in III-V QWs, i.e., isotropic and linear in k(parallel to) (for k(parallel to) similar to0). For the oblique valleys, contrary to the III-V case, a Rashba effect is obtained that is anisotropic and described by an effective magnetic field with nonzero component along the growth direction. Specific results for PbTe/PbEuTe asymmetric QWs with large Rashba splittings are shown. %8 Apr. %N 2 %T Rashba effect in IV-VI semiconductor quantum wells %@secondarytype PRE PI %K SENSORS AND MATERIALS, Spin-orbit interaction, Rashba effect, Spintronics, IV-VI semiconductors.
