We formulate a generalized scattering field theory a la Buttiker describing particles transport in magnetic/superconducting heterostructures. The proposed formalism, characterized by a four- component spinorial wavefunction of the…
We present a theory of voltage-induced spin-transfer torques in ballistic non-collinear spin valves. The torkance on one ferromagnetic layer is expressed in terms of scattering coefficients of the whole spin valve, in analogy to the…
The electron transport properties of hybrid ferromagnetic|normal metal structures such as multilayers and spin valves depend on the relative orientation of the magnetization direction of the ferromagnetic elements. Whereas the contrast in…
We present a numerical algorithm to solve the Boltzmann equation for the electron distribution function in magnetic multilayer heterostructures with non-collinear magnetizations. The solution is based on a scattering matrix formalism for…
We develop a detailed theory for spin transport in a one-dimensional quantum wire described by Luttinger liquid theory. A hydrodynamic description for the quantum wire is supplemented by boundary conditions taking into account the exchange…
Recent experimental measurements of magnetoresistance in dual spin valves [A. Aziz et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 103, 237203 (2009)] reveal some nonlinear features of transport, which have not been observed in other systems. We propose a…
We present a calculation of current-induced torques in metallic magnetic multilayers derived from the spin-dependent transmission and reflection properties of the magnetic layers. A scattering formalism is employed to calculate the torques…
Interfacial spin-flip scattering plays an important role in magnetoelectronic devices. Spin loss at metallic interfaces is usually quantified by matching the magnetoresistance data for multilayers to the Valet-Fert model, while treating…
The interplay between spin and charge degrees of freedom in low-dimensional systems is a cornerstone of modern spintronics, where achieving all-electrical control of spin currents is a major goal. Spin-orbit interactions provide a promising…
We develop a theory for spin transport and magnetization dynamics in a quantum-dot spin valve, i.e., two magnetic reservoirs coupled to a quantum dot. Our theory is able to take into account effects of strong correlations. We demonstrate…
A simple tight-binding theoretical model is proposed for spin dependent, current-in-plane transport in highly coherent spin valve structures under specularity conditions. Using quantum-mechanically coherent and spatially quantized Fermi…
We predict that due to spin-orbit(SO) interaction there is a torque even for the parallel configuration of spin valve structure (F1/2DEG/F2). This torque arises due to spin orbit interaction. We develop a scattering theory for spin density…
We study the bias-dependent spin-transfer torque in magnetic tunnel junctions in the Stoner model by scattering theory. We show that the in-plane (Slonczewski type) torque vanishes and subsequently reverses its direction when the bias…
We present a scattering-state description for the non-equilibrium multichannel charge transport in the presence of electron-vibration couplings. It is based on an expansion of scattering orders of eigenchannel states. Examining charge…
We develop a theory of electron transport through quantum dots that are weakly coupled to ferromagnetic leads. The theory covers both the linear and nonlinear transport regime, takes non-collinear magnetization of the leads into account,…
Spins transverse to the magnetization of a ferromagnet only survives over a short distance. We develop a drift-diffusion approach that captures the main features of transverse spin effects in systems with arbitrary spin textures (vortices,…
The standard spin-transfer torque (STT)---where spin-polarized current drives dynamics of magnetization viewed as a classical vector---requires noncollinearity between electron spins carried by the current and magnetization of a…
According to the spin-torque model, current-driven magnetic dynamics in ferromagnetic multilayers is determined by the transfer of electron spin perpendicular to the layers' magnetizations. By separating the largest contributions to the…
In cavity quantum electrodynamics, the multiple reflections of a photon between two mirrors defining a cavity is exploited to enhance the light-coupling of an intra-cavity atom. We show that this paradigm for enhancing the interaction of a…
We theoretically investigate spin-dependent transport in a TMD-based vertical spin valve, taking WSe$_2$ as a representative example. Using effective Hamiltonians for the heterostructure and the Landauer formula, we derive the transmission…
