We report on the first systematic study of spin transport in bilayer graphene (BLG) as a function of mobility, minimum conductivity, charge density and temperature. The spin relaxation time $\tau_s$ scales inversely with the mobility $\mu$…
We review our recent work on spin injection, transport and relaxation in graphene. The spin injection and transport in single layer graphene (SLG) were investigated using nonlocal magnetoresistance (MR) measurements. Spin injection was…
Electron spin relaxation due to the D'yakonov-Perel' mechanism is investigated in bilayer graphene with only the lowest conduction band being relevant. The spin-orbit coupling is constructed from the symmetry group analysis with the…
The relaxation time of a single-electron spin is an important parameter for solid-state spin qubits, as it directly limits the lifetime of the encoded information. Thanks to the low spin-orbit interaction and low hyperfine coupling,…
Graphene is an attractive material for spintronics due to theoretical predictions of long spin lifetimes arising from low spin-orbit and hyperfine couplings. In experiments, however, spin lifetimes in single layer graphene (SLG) measured…
We study spin-transport in bilayer-graphene (BLG), spin-orbit coupled to a tungsten di sulfide (WS$_2$) substrate, and measure a record spin lifetime anisotropy ~40-70, i.e. ratio between the out-of-plane $\tau_{\perp}$ and in-plane spin…
We calculate the spin relaxation time of mobile electrons due to spin precession between random impurity scattering (D'yakonov-Perel' mechanism) in electrically gated bilayer graphene analytically and numerically. Due to the trigonal…
We report on spin transport features which are unique to high quality bilayer graphene, in absence of magnetic contaminants and strong intervalley mixing. The time-dependent spin polarization of propagating wavepacket is computed using an…
We investigate how spins relax in intrinsic graphene. The spin-orbit coupling arises from the band structure and is enhanced by ripples. The orbital motion is influenced by scattering centers and ripple-induced gauge fields. Spin relaxation…
The differences between spin relaxation in graphene and in other materials are discussed. For relaxation by scattering processes, the Elliot-Yafet mechanism, the relation between the spin and the momentum scattering times acquires a…
The temperature dependence of the spin relaxation time in multilayer graphene (MLG) spin valve devices was measured using a non-local magnetoresistance (NLMR) measurement. A weak localization (WL) was observed from magnetoresistance (MR)…
We demonstrate injection, transport and detection of spins in spin valve arrays patterned in both copper based chemical vapor deposition (Cu-CVD) synthesized wafer scale single layer (SLG) and bilayer graphene (BLG). We observe spin…
In graphene, out-of-plane (flexural) vibrations and static ripples imposed by the substrate relax the electron spin, intrinsically protected by mirror symmetry. We calculate the relaxation times in different scenarios, accounting for all…
Spin transport experiments in graphene, a single layer of carbon atoms, indicate spin relaxation times that are significantly shorter than the theoretical predictions. We investigate experimentally whether these short spin relaxation times…
In graphene spintronics, interaction of localized magnetic moments with the electron spins paves a new way to explore the underlying spin relaxation mechanism. A self-assembled layer of organic cobalt-porphyrin (CoPP) molecules on graphene…
We report the first observation of a large spin lifetime anisotropy in bilayer graphene (BLG) fully encapsulated between hexagonal boron nitride. We characterize the out-of-plane ($\tau_\perp$) and in-plane ($\tau_\parallel$) spin lifetimes…
A spin lifetime anisotropy between in-plane and out-of-plane spins in bilayer graphene (BLG) can be achieved by spin-orbit proximity coupling of graphene to transition metal dichalcogenides. This coupling reduces the in-plane spin lifetime…
Spin-relaxation is conventionally discussed using two different approaches for materials with and without inversion symmetry. The former is known as the Elliott-Yafet (EY) theory and for the latter the D'yakonov-Perel' (DP) theory applies,…
Theory of the electron spin relaxation in graphene on the SiO$_2$ substrate is developed. Charged impurities and polar optical surface phonons in the substrate induce an effective random Bychkov-Rashba-like spin-orbit coupling field which…
The elimination of extrinsic sources of spin relaxation is key in realizing the exceptional intrinsic spin transport performance of graphene. Towards this, we study charge and spin transport in bilayer graphene-based spin valve devices…
