We investigate theoretically the spin current and spin current induced electric field in a weak Rashba spin-orbit coupling quantum wire (QW) using a definition for spin current by means of scattering matrix. It is found that there exists two non-zero linear spin current density elements which have oscillation peaks at the center of QW and their strengths can be changed by the number of propagation modes and Rashba constant, respectively. Moreover, the spin current induced electric field has also been calculated and its strength is measurable with present technology with which can be used to detect spin current.
