Spin waves in ferromagnetic materials are predominantly characterized by right-handed circular polarization due to symmetry breaking induced by net magnetization. However, magnetic interactions, including the external magnetic field,…

Spin-filter tunneling is a promising way to generate highly spin-polarized current, a key component for spintronics applications. In this work we explore the tunneling conductance across the spin-filter material CoFe2O4 interfaced with Au…

The electronic and magnetic properties of TbMnO3 leading to its ferroelectric (FE) polarization were investigated on the basis of relativistic density functional theory (DFT) calculations. In agreement with experiment, we show that the…

Although the creation of spin polarization in various non-magnetic media via electrical spin injection from a ferromagnetic tunnel contact has been demonstrated, much of the basic behavior is heavily debated. It is reported here for…

We extend the orbital-dependent electron tunneling model implemented within the three-dimensional (3D) Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin (WKB) atom-superposition approach to simulate spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy (SP-STM) above…

Spin-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) is a major experimental probe of chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS), yet it remains unclear whether the measured spin polarization reflects molecular chirality itself or the broader…

It is shown that absorption of circularly polarized infrared radiation achieved by inter-subband and intra-subband (Drude-like) transitions results in a monopolar spin orientation of free carriers. The monopolar spin polarization in…

Graphene has remarkable opportunities for spintronics due to its high mobility and long spin diffusion length, especially when encapsulated in hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN). Here, for the first time, we demonstrate gate-tunable spin…

A theory for the relation between the spin polarization and luminescence in silicon is presented. The theory provides intuitive relations for phonon-assisted optical transitions between the conduction and valence band edges. It is shown…

We demonstrate spin polarized tunneling from Fe through a SiO2 tunnel barrier into a Si n-i-p heterostructure. Transport measurements indicate that single step tunneling is the dominant transport mechanism. The circular polarization, Pcirc,…

We theoretically demonstrate the capability of a ferromagnetic-normal (FN) interface in graphene to focus an electron-wave with a certain spin direction. The essential feature is the negative refraction Klein tunneling, which is…

The research field of spintronics has sought, over the past 25 years and through several materials science tracks, a source of highly spin-polarized current at room temperature. Organic spinterfaces, which consist in an interface between a…

Density functional theory (DFT) including van der Waals weak interaction in conjunction with the so called rotational invariant DFT+U, where $U$ is the Hubbard interaction of the iron site, is used to show that the fluorinated spin…

Noninteracting electrons confined to a corrugated surface are investigated in magnetic field, and the associated effective Pauli equation is given analytically by the thin-layer quantization scheme. Interestingly, the Zeeman splitting gaps…

Spin-dependent transport is investigated in ballistic regime through the interface between a ferromagnet and a spin spiral. We show that spin-dependent interferences lead to a new type of diffraction called "spin-diffraction". It is shown…

We report on the electronic and optical properties of two theoretically predicted stable spinel compounds of the form ZnB2O4, where B = Ni or Cu; neither compound has been previously synthesized, so we compare them to the previously studied…

We have experimentally and theoretically investigated the spin injection/detection polarization in a Si-based ferromagnetic tunnel junction with an amorphous MgO layer, and demonstrated that the experimental features of the spin…

By utilizing the proximity effect, we introduce a platform that exploits ferroelectric switching to modulate spin currents in graphene proximitized by ferroelectric In$_2$Se$_3$ monolayer. Through first-principles calculations and…

The organic spinterface describes the spin-polarized properties that develop, due to charge transfer, at the interface between a ferromagnetic metal (FM) and the molecules of an organic semiconductor. Yet, if the latter is also magnetic…

Based on first-principles density functional calculations, a general approach for determining and analyzing the degree of spin polarization (P) in ferromagnets is presented. The approach employs the so-called tetrahedron method to evaluate…
