Claim:
1. A spin-orbit coupled device, comprising: a confinement part; and a circuitry, the circuitry comprising: and wherein, the circuitry is configured to apply a voltage difference across the confinement part to generate an electrical current that flows between the input device and the output device to subject charge carriers drifting in the confinement part to a non-linear spin-orbit interaction, which causes to rotate a spin polarization of a drifting charge carriers by an angle that depends non-linearly on momenta of such charge carriers; and the circuitry is configured to allow momenta of charge carriers drifting in the confinement part to be varied, while injecting spin-polarizations in the input region, so as to rotate spin-polarizations of charge carriers drifting in the confinement part, owing to the non-linear spin-orbit interaction.
