Here we report spin- and angle-resolved photoemission studies of the inert graphene layer formed on the surface of a ferromagnetic material, Ni(111). X-ray photoemission and spin-resolved spectroscopy of secondary electrons reveal that…
Graphene is a promising candidate for applications in spintronics. In this paper, Density Functional Theory method is used to calculate the band structure and magnetic properties of graphene on Ni(111). Our results show that once there is…
Graphene, as a material with a small intrinsic spin-orbit interaction of approximately 1 $\mu$eV, has a limited application in spintronics. Adsorption of graphene on the surfaces of heavy-metals was proposed to induce the strong…
The structure inversion asymmetry at surfaces and interfaces give rise to the Rashba spin-orbit interaction (SOI), that breaks the spin degeneracy of surface or interface states. Hence, when an electric current runs through a surface or…
Spin currents which allow for a dissipationless transport of information can be generated by electric fields in semiconductor heterostructures in the presence of a Rashba-type spin-orbit coupling. The largest Rashba effects occur for…
Graphene consists in a single-layer carbon crystal where 2$p_z$ electrons display a linear dispersion relation in the vicinity of the Fermi level, conveniently described by a massless Dirac equation in $2+1$ spacetime. Spin-orbit effects…

We study how the Rashba spin-orbit interaction influences unconventional superconductivity in a two dimensional electron gas partially spin-polarized by a magnetic field. Somewhat surprisingly, we find that for all field orientations, only…
The (001) surface of SrTiO3 were transformed from insulating to conducting after Ar+ irradiation, producing a quasi two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG). This conducting surface layer can introduce Rashba spin orbital coupling due to the…
We calculate the efficiency of infrared optical spin injection in single-layer graphene with Rashba spin-orbit coupling and for in-plane magnetic field. The injection rate in the photon frequency range corresponding to the Rashba splitting…

We intercalate a van der Waals heterostructure of graphene and hexagonal Boron Nitride with Au, by encapsulation, and show that Au at the interface is two dimensional. A charge transfer upon current annealing indicates redistribution of Au…
The Rashba effect as an electrically tunable spin-orbit interaction is the base for a multitude of possible applications such as spin filters, spin transistors, and quantum computing using Majorana states in nanowires. Moreover, this…
Large Rashba effect efficiently tuned by an external electric field is highly desired for spintronic devices. Using first-principles calculations, we demonstrate that large Rashba splitting is locked at conduction band minimum in…
Graphene is a highly promising material in the field of spin electronics. Recent experiments on electron spin resonance have observed a reduction in the g-factor of graphene. In our previous paper [J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 88, 094707 (2019)], we…
