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…

We determine the spin-lifetime anisotropy of spin-polarized carriers in graphene. In contrast to prior approaches, our method does not require large out-of-plane magnetic fields and thus it is reliable for both low- and high-carrier…

It is proposed that the observed small (100 ps) spin relaxation time in graphene is due to resonant scattering by local magnetic moments. At resonances, magnetic moments behave as spin hot spots: the spin-flip scattering rates are as large…

Graphene has emerged as the foremost material for future two-dimensional spintronics due to its tuneable electronic properties. In graphene, spin information can be transported over long distances and, in principle, be manipulated by using…

We compare different methods to measure the anisotropy of the spin-lifetime in graphene. In addition to out-of-plane rotation of the ferromagnetic electrodes and oblique spin precession, we present a Hanle experiment where the electron…

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…

Dirac plasmons in a doped graphene sheet have recently been shown to enable confinement of light to ultrasmall volumes. In this work we calculate the intrinsic lifetime of a Dirac plasmon in a doped graphene sheet by analyzing the role of…

A long spin-lifetime of electrons is the holy grail of spintronics, a field exploiting the electron angular momentum as information carrier and storage unit. Previous reports indicated a spin lifetime, $\tau_{\text{s}}$ near $10$ ns at best…

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…

We report the discovery of a strong and tunable spin lifetime anisotropy with excellent spin lifetimes up to 7.8 ns in dual-gated bilayer graphene. Remarkably, this realizes the manipulation of spins in graphene by electrically-controlled…

We investigate spin relaxation in rippled graphene where curvature induces a Zeeman-like spin-orbit coupling with opposite effective magnetic fields along the graphene plane in ${\bf K}$ and ${\bf K}^\prime$ valleys. The joint effect of…

We present a joint experiment-theory study on the role of fluorine adatoms in spin and momentum scattering of charge carriers in dilute fluorinated graphene and bilayer graphene. The experimental spin-flip and momentum scattering rates and…

We discuss the role of spin-flip scattering of electrons from the magnetized edges in graphene nanoribbons. The spin-flip scattering is associated with strong fluctuations of the magnetic moments at the edge. Using the Boltzmann equation…

An effective Hamiltonian is derived to describe the conduction band of monolayer black phosphorus (phosphorene) in the presence of spin-orbit coupling and external electric field. Envelope function approximation along with symmetry…

We investigate the intrinsic spin relaxation of conduction electrons in germanium due to electron-phonon scattering. We derive intravalley and intervalley spin-flip matrix elements for a general spin orientation and quantify the resulting…

We generalize the diffusive model for spin injection and detection in nonlocal spin structures to account for spin precession under an applied magnetic field in an anisotropic medium, for which the spin lifetime is not unique and depends on…

We report on fundamental aspects of spin dynamics in graphene interfaced with transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs). By using realistic models derived from first principles we compute the spin lifetime anisotropy, defined as the ratio of…

We use a combination of molecular dynamics and quantum transport simulations to investigate the upper limit of spin transport in suspended graphene. We find that thermally-induced atomic-scale corrugations are the dominant factor, limiting…

Through First-Principles real-time Density-Matrix (FPDM) dynamics simulations, we investigate spin relaxation due to electron-phonon and electron-impurity scatterings with spin-orbit coupling in two-dimensional Dirac materials - silicene…

The scattering of two-dimensional massless Dirac fermions from local spin-orbit interactions with an origin in dilute concentrations of physisorbed atomic species on graphene is theoretically investigated. The hybridization between graphene…
