We predict a new effect in electronic bilayers: the {\it Spin Hall Drag}. The effect consists in the generation of spin accumulation across one layer by an electric current along the other layer. It arises from the combined action of…
The quantum spin Hall effect arises due to band inversion in topological insulators, and has the defining characteristic that it hosts helical edge channels at zero magnetic field, leading to a finite spin Hall conductivity. The spin Hall…
It is shown that the electron spin may not be conserved after a spin-independent scattering. This fact strongly limits the validity of the classical model of spin-up/spin-down bands, which has been used for description of magnetic…
