In metallic systems with spin-orbit coupling a longitudinal charge current may generate a transverse pure spin current; vice-versa an injected pure spin current may result in a transverse charge current. Such direct and inverse spin Hall…

A useful experimental signature of the ordinary spin Hall effect is the spin accumulation it produces at the sample edges. The superspin Hall current [Phys. Rev. B 96, 094512 (2017)] is a transverse equilibrium spin current which is induced…
The spin Hall effect is a phenomenon that an electric field induces a spin Hall current. In this Letter, we examine the inverse effect that, in a ferromagnetic conductor, a charge Hall current is induced by a spin motive force, or a…
