We studied the local Ru 4d electronic structure of alpha-RuCl3 by means of polarization dependent x-ray absorption spectroscopy at the Ru-L2,3 edges. We observed a vanishingly small linear dichroism indicating that electronically the Ru 4d…
We study shot noise for spin-polarized currents and entangled electron pairs in a four-probe (beam splitter) geometry with a local Rashba spin-orbit (s-o) interaction in the incoming leads. Within the scattering formalism we find that shot…
Spin splitting in electronic band structures via antiferromagnetic orders is a new route to control spin-polarized carriers that is available for spintronics applications. Here, we investigated the spin degree of freedom in the electronic…
When surface state electrons scatter at perturbations, such as magnetic or nonmagnetic adatoms or clusters on surfaces, an electronic resonance, localized at the adatom site, can develop below the bottom of the surface state band for both…
Extending a previous work on spin precession in GaAs/AlGaAs quantum dots with spin-orbit coupling, we study the role of deformation in the external confinement. Small elliptical deformations are enough to alter the precessional…
Recently, a giant spin splitting has been observed in surface alloys on noble metal (111) surfaces as a result of a strong structural modification at the surface as well as the large atomic spin-orbit interaction (SOI) of the alloy atoms.…
Rutile RuO$_2$ has attracted significant interest due to its putative unconventional electronic and magnetic properties and its proximity to superconductivity. However, the measurement and interpretation of its electronic structure has been…
We report experimental evidence of excitonic spin-splitting, in addition to the conventional Zeeman effect, produced by a combination of the Rashba spin-orbit interaction, Stark shift and charge screening. The electric-field-induced…
In this study, novel use of the electromagnetic field profile of a localized spoof surface plasmonic mode to detect electron spin resonance is being reported. The mode is supported on a resonator with a complementary metallic spiral…
Lack of inversion symmetry in metals breaks SU(2) symmetry which results in spin-splitting of the electronic states at the Fermi level due to various types of spin-orbit coupling (SOC) such as Dresselhaus, Rashba, or Ising (also called…
Single cobalt atoms on the (111) surfaces of noble metals were for a long time considered prototypical systems for the Kondo effect in scanning tunneling microscopy experiments. Yet, recent first-principle calculations suggest that the…
At interfaces with inversion symmetry breaking, Rashba effect couples the motion of electrons to their spin; as a result, spin-charge interconversion mechanism can occur. These interconversion mechanisms commonly exploit Rashba spin…
We study the scattering of an electron in a definite state of spin at an interface of an hybrid system with a Rashba spin-orbit coupling on one side. Out of the normal incidence the double refraction phenomenon appears, with one or two…
When a foreign atom is placed on a surface of a metal, the surrounding sea of electrons responds screening the additional charge leading to oscillations or ripples. On surfaces, those electrons are sometimes confined to two-dimensional…
In systems with broken inversion symmetry spin-orbit coupling (SOC) yields a Rashba-type spin splitting of electronic states, manifested in a k-dependent splitting of the bands. While most research had previously focused on 2D electron…
Spin-orbit coupling is a manifestation of special relativity. In the reference frame of a moving electron, electric fields transform into magnetic fields, which interact with the electron spin and lift the degeneracy of spin-up and…
We present first-principles calculations of the electronic band structure and spin-orbit effects in graphene functionalized with methyl molecules in dense and dilute limits. The dense limit is represented by a 2$\times$2 graphene supercell…
Surface states in Tl/Si(111) and Bi/Si(111) show non-Rashba-type spin splitting. We study spin-transport properties in these surface states. First we construct tight-binding Hamiltonians for Tl/Si and Bi/Si surfaces, which respect…
By in-situ change of polarization a small splitting of the Zhang-Rice singlet state band near the Fermi level has been resolved for optimum doped (x=0.4) Bi$_{2}$Sr$_{2-x}$La$_{x}$CuO$_{6+\delta}$ at the (pi,0)-point (R.Manzke et al. PRB…
Optical excitations of BiTeI with large Rashba spin splitting have been studied in an external magnetic field ($B$) applied parallel to the polar axis. A sequence of transitions between the Landau levels (LLs), whose energies are in…
