abstract = {The persistent spin helix (PSH) is the stable spin state
protected by SU(2) spin-rotation symmetry. Long-livedspin
textures, referred to as helical and homogeneous spin modes,
emerge as a result of this symmetry. Thesetextures are
potential candidates for the development of quantum and
topological phenomena as well as information carriers in
semiconductors. To this end, revealing the lifetime of all
spin modes is of great importance. Weexperimentally reveal
the lifetime of both helical and homogeneous spin modes in
the vicinity of the PSH stateby fully electrical means
through quantum corrections to the conductivity. In a
(001)-grown GaAs/AlGaAs twodimensional electron gas, we
measure the weak antilocalization in the condition where
Rashba and Dresselhausspin-orbit (SO) interactions coexist.
According to the latest theory on magnetoconductance
[Kammermeier et al.,Phys. Rev. B 104, 235430 (2021)], the
Cooperon triplet mode in the quantum corrections can be
decoupledinto helical and homogeneous spin modes in the
vicinity of the PSH state, which allows each mode lifetimeto
be determined from the quantum interference effect. By using
a real-space simulation in tandem with theexperiment, we
were able to simultaneously evaluate the relaxation rates of
the two spin modes. Our results showthat the ratio of Rashba
and Dresselhaus SO coefficients is modulated by the top gate
and that this quadraticallychanges the relaxation rates of
the helical and homogeneous spin modes, which is consistent
with theoreticalpredictions. These findings pave the way for
exploring electron spin textures in various bandgap
materials fromsemiconductors to metals.},
