It has been recently established that optoelectronic and non-linear transport experiments can give direct access to the dipole moment of the Berry curvature in non-magnetic and non-centrosymmetric materials. Thus far, non-vanishing Berry…
Stoner magnetism in bands endowed with Berry curvature is shown to be profoundly influenced by the coupling between spin chirality density $\vec s\cdot(\partial_x\vec s\times\partial_y\vec s)$ and Berry's orbital magnetization. The key…
The out-of-plane antidamping-like orbital torque fosters great hope for high-efficiency spintronic devices. Here we report experimentally the observation of out-of-plane antidamping-like torque that could be generated by z-polarized orbital…
A twisted honeycomb bilayer exhibits a moir\'e superstructure that is composed of a hexagonal arrangement of AB and BA stacked domains separated by domain boundaries. In the case of twisted bilayer graphene, the application of an electric…
Systems with strong spin orbit coupling support a number of new phases of matter and novel phenomena. This work focuses on the interplay of spin orbit coupling and interactions in yielding correlated phenomena in two dimensional transition…
We consider the impact of Berry phase on the Wigner crystal (WC) state of a two-dimensional electron system. We consider first a model of Bernal bilayer graphene with a perpendicular displacement field, and we show that Berry curvature…
The topological properties of a material's electronic structure are encoded in its Berry curvature, a quantity which is intimately related to the transverse electrical conductivity. In transition metal dichalcogenides with broken inversion…
Inversion symmetry breaking and spin-orbit coupling lead to valley and spin Hall effect in MoS2. Because of the large valley separation in momentum space, the valley index is expected to be robust. In this paper, quantum Hall effect in MoS2…
Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides are promising materials for spintronics due to their robust spin-valley locked valence states, enabling efficient charge-to-spin conversion via valley Hall effect with non-equilibrium spins…
Valley asymmetry of the electron spectrum in transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) originates from the spin-orbit coupling. Presence of spin-orbit fields of opposite signs for electrons in K and K' valleys in combination with possibility…
Full experimental control of local spin-charge interconversion is of primary interest for spintronics. Heterostructures combining graphene with a strongly spin-orbit coupled two-dimensional (2D) material enable such functionality by design.…
Analogous to charge and spin, electrons in solids endows an additional degree of freedom: the valley pseudospin. Two-dimensional hexagonal materials such as graphene exhibit two valleys, labelled as $\mathbf{K}$ and $\mathbf{K}^{\prime}$.…
Valley Hall effect has been observed in asymmetric single-layer and bilayer graphene systems. In single-layer graphene systems, asymmetry is introduced by aligning graphene with hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) with a near-zero twist angle,…
Nonlinear transport plays a vital role in probing the quantum geometry of Bloch electrons, valley chirality, and carrier scattering mechanisms. The nonlinear Hall effect, characterized by a nonlinear scaling of Hall voltage with…
Carrying information using generation and detection of the orbital current, instead of the spin current, is an emerging field of research, where the orbital Hall effect (OHE) is an important ingredient. Here, we propose a new mechanism of…
We study the spin orbit torque arising from an intrinsic linear Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling in a single layer III-V diluted magnetic semiconductor. We investigate the transport properties and spin torque using the linear response theory…
Electrons in graphene have fourfold spin and valley degeneracies owing to the unique bipartite honeycomb lattice and an extremely weak spin-orbit coupling, which can support a series of broken symmetry states. Atomic-scale defects in…
We consider graphene deposited on monolayers of such transition-metal dichalcogenides like MoSe$_2$, WSe$_2$, MoS$_2$, and WS$_2$. Our key objective is to study the impact of relative twist angle between the monolayers on the…
The valley-contrasting geometric features of electronic wave functions manifested in Berry curvature and orbital magnetic moment have profound consequences on magnetotransport properties in both three- and two-dimensional systems. Although…
In systems with strong spin-orbit coupling, the relationship between spin-transfer torque and the divergence of the spin current is generalized to a relation between spin transfer torques, total angular momentum current, and mechanical…
