We study spin and valley transports in junctions composed of silicene and topological crystalline insulators. We consider normal/magnetic/normal Dirac metal junctions where a gate electrode is attached to the magnetic region. In…
Silicene and germanene are key materials for the field of valleytronics. However, interaction with the substrate, which is necessary to support the electronically active medium, becomes a major obstacle. In the present work, we propose a…
Using first-principles calculations within density functional theory, we investigate the intrinsic spin Hall effect in monolayers of group-VI transition-metal dichalcogenides MX2 (M = Mo, W and X = S, Se). MX2 monolayers are direct band-gap…
Silicene have been proposed to host multiple topological phases depending on the environmental parameters such as gated voltage and proximity induced exchange field. Two typical topological phase are quantum spin Hall phase and quantum…
The energy spectra of transition metal dichalcogenides are primarily influenced by the and orbitals. This results in a three-band model characterized by strong spin-orbit interaction. Investigating these bands using a projection into a…
Silicene (a monolayer of silicon atoms) is a topological insulator, which undergoes a topological phase transition to a band insulator under an external electric field. The spin polarization is unique and opposite at the K and K' points due…
We studied the drift of electron spins under an applied DC electric field in single layer graphene spin valves in a field effect transport geometry at room temperature. In the metallic conduction regime ($n \simeq 3.5 \times 10^{16}$…
The electronic properties of the novel two dimensional (2D) material silicene are strongly influenced by the application of a perpendicular electric field $E_z$ and of an exchange field $M$ due to adatoms positioned on the surface or a…
We show that with the help of spin-orbit coupling, nonlinear light-matter interactions can efficiently couple with spin and valley degrees of freedom. This revealed spin photogalvanic effect can generate the long-time pursued intrinsic pure…
We predict theoretically that, when a normal metallic thin film (without bulk spin-orbit coupling, such as Cu or Al) is sandwiched by two insulators, two prominent effects arise due to the interfacial spin-orbit coupling: a giant spin-Hall…
We adopt the tight-binding mode-matching method to study the strain effect on silicene heterojunctions. It is found that valley- and spin-dependent separation of electrons cannot be achieved by the electric field only. When a strain and an…
Recent experiments have studied the temperature and gate voltage dependence of nonlocal transport in bilayer graphene, identifying features thought to be associated with the two-dimensional semiconductor's bulk intrinsic valley Hall effect.…
We investigate the optical conductivity, along with longitudinal and transverse conductivities, in buckled hexagonal lattice such as silicene subjected to both an in-plane magnetic field and a perpendicular electric field. In this model, we…
The intrinsic spin-Hall effect on spin accumulation and electric conductance in a diffusive regime of a 2D electron gas has been studied for a 2D strip of a finite width. It is shown that the spin polarization near the flanks of the strip,…
We investigate the intrinsic spin Hall effect in a quantum well semiconductor doped with magnetic impurities, as a means to manipulate the carriers' spin. Using a simple Hamiltonian with Rashba spin-orbit coupling and exchange interactions,…
The recent synthesis of two-dimensional staggered materials opens up burgeoning opportunities to study optical spin-orbit interactions in semiconducting Dirac-like systems. We unveil topological phase transitions in the photonic spin Hall…
We theoretically investigate gate-defined graphene superlattices with broken inversion symmetry as a platform for realizing tunable valley dependent transport. Our analysis is motivated by recent experiments [C. Forsythe et al., Nat.…
Spin-orbit coupling is a fundamental mechanism that connects the spin of a charge carrier with its momentum. Likewise, in the optical domain, a synthetic spin-orbit coupling is accessible, for instance, by engineering optical anisotropies…
Intrinsic spin Hall effect in the AA-stacked bilayer graphene is studied theoretically. The low-energy electronic spectrum for states in the vicinity of the Dirac points is obtained from the corresponding $\mathbf{k}\cdot\mathbf{p}$…
Based on DFT+U and Berry curvature calculations, we study the electronic structures and topological properties of 3d transition metal (TM) atom (from Ti to Co) adsorbed germanene (TM-germanene). We find that valley-polarized anomalous hall…
