The spin-orbit interaction couples the electrons' motion to their spin. Accordingly, passing a current in a material with strong spin-orbit coupling generates a transverse spin current (spin Hall effect, SHE) and vice-versa (inverse spin…
Spin Hall effect can be induced both by the extrinsic impurity scattering and by the intrinsic spin-orbit coupling in the electronic structure. The HgTe/CdTe quantum well has a quantum phase transition where the electronic structure changes…

The spin phenomena observed at a clean metall-insulator interface are typically reduced to Rashba-Edelstein effect, that leads to spin accumulation over a few monolayers. We demonstrate that the presence of interface disorder significantly…
