Pure spin current, a flow of spin angular momentum without flow of any companying net charge, is generated in two common ways. One makes use of the spin Hall effect in normal metals (NM) with strong spin-orbit coupling, such as Pt or Ta.…
The conductance mismatch problem limits the spin-injection efficiency significantly, and spin-injection into graphene has been usually requiring high-quality tunnel barriers to circumvent the conductance mismatch. We introduce a novel…
For graphene nanoribbons with Rashba spin-orbit coupling, the peculiar magnetic response due to the presence of a magnetization and geometric confinement are analyzed within a tight-binding model. We observe a sizable transverse…
Spin current--a flow of electron spins without a charge current--is an ideal information carrier free from Joule heating for electronic devices. The celebrated spin Hall effect, which arises from the relativistic spin-orbit coupling,…
Topological quantum matter exhibits novel transport phenomena driven by entanglement between internal degrees of freedom, as for instance generated by spin-orbit coupling effects. Here we report on a direct connection between the mechanism…
Monolayer graphene with an energy gap presents a pseudospin symmetry broken ferromagnet with a perpendicular pseudomagnetization whose direction is switched by altering the type of doping between n and p. We demonstrate an electrical…
Using the Green function formalism we calculate a current-induced spin polarization of weakly magnetized graphene with Rashba spin-orbit interaction. In a general case, all components of the current-induced spin polarization are nonzero,…
Using ab initio methods based on the density functional theory we show that rotated graphene bilayers at angles different from the magic ones can have an electronic spectrum similar to those by applying moderate external pressures. We find…
In this paper, we study the near-field radiative energy, linear-momentum, and angular-momentum transfer from a current-biased graphene to nanoparticles. The electric current through the graphene sheet induces nonequilibrium fluctuations,…
We study the spin transport phenomena in two-dimensional graphene-like materials with arbitrary tilted Dirac cones. The tilt arises due to next-nearest hopping when the bottom of the conduction band and top of the valence band does not…
Magnetic droplets are dynamical solitons that can be generated by locally suppressing the dynamical damping in magnetic films with perpendicular anisotropy. To date, droplets have been observed only in nanocontact spin-torque oscillators…
We demonstrate spin pumping, i.e. the generation of a pure spin current by precessing magnetization, without application of microwave radiation commonly used in spin pumping experiments. We use femtosecond laser pulses to simultaneously…
We propose a quantum pump mechanism based on the particular properties of graphene, namely chirality and bipolarity. The underlying physics is the excitation of evanescent modes entering a potential barrier from one lead, while those from…
We calculate the energy spectrum and eigenstates of a graphene sheet which contains a circular deformation. Using time-independent perturbation theory with the ratio of the height and width of the deformation as the small parameter, we find…
The development of a spintronics device relies on efficient generation of spin polarized currents and their electric field controlled manipulation. While observation of exceptionally long spin relaxation lengths make graphene an intriguing…
We show that graphene with Mn adatoms trapped at single vacancies feature spin-dependent Seebeck effect, thus enabling the use of this material for spin caloritronics. A gate potential can be used to tune its thermoelectric properties in a…
Quantum rings connected to ballistic circuits couple strongly to external magnetic fields if the connection is not symmetric. By analytical theory and computer simulation I show that properly connected rings can be used to pump currents in…
Graphene is a very promising material in spintronics due to both its high electric mobility and low intrinsic spin-obit coupling. Electronic spins can be injected from a ferromagnetic material through a tunnel contact into graphene owing to…
In spintronics, the ability to transport magnetic information often depends on the existence of a spin current traveling between two different magnetic objects acting as source and probe. A large fraction of this information never reaches…
We demonstrate that a quantum spin Hall current, spontaneously generated at the edge of a two-dimensional topological insulator, acts as a source of spin-pumping for a magnetic impurity with uniaxial anisotropy. One can then manipulate the…
