Abstract

The scattering of a spin-polarized quantum wave on a potential barrier is investigated. The vectors of spin-polarization of incident wave and the internal magnetic field (magnetization) of the barrier are not generally located in the same plane and they form a noncomplanar system. The dependences of the polarization vectors of waves scattered forward and backward on the degrees of freedom determining the orientation of the barrier magnetization are investigated.
