41. In order to obtain the FD configurations that contribute to the eigenstates in the presence of pure Rashba coupling one needs to invert the arrows in Fig. 2.
42. The results for pure Rashba coupling can be obtained as 2 SzR =1-2 SzD, where SzD is the z component of the spin for pure Dresselhaus coupling.
