We study spin polarization induced by locally injected electric currents in a metal whose spin--orbit coupling reflects its structural chirality. We reveal both spin polarization in the bulk in the linear response and antiparallel spin…

Chiral matter has a structure that lacks inversion, mirror, and rotoreflection symmetry; thus, a given chiral material has either a right- or left-handed structure. In chiral matter, electricity and magnetism can be coupled in an exotic…
