We investigated the effect of spin polarization on the structural properties and gradient of electric field (EFG) on Sn, In, and Cd impurity in RSn$_3$ (R=Sm, Eu, Gd) and RIn$_3$ (R=Tm, Yb, Lu) compounds. The calculations were performed…
Two-dimensional (2D) carrier systems exhibit various significant physical phenomena for electronics and spintronics, where one of the most promising traits is efficient spin-to-charge conversion stemming from their Rashba-type spin-orbit…
Bismuth, the heaviest of all group V elements with strong spin-orbit coupling, is famously known to exhibit many interesting transport properties, and effects such as Shubnikov-de Haas and de Haas-van Alphen were first revealed in its bulk…
Several rare-earth transition-metal ferrimagnetic systems exhibit all-optical magnetization switching upon excitation with a femtosecond laser pulse. Although this phenomenon is very promising for future opto-magnetic data storage…
By combining symmetry analysis and direct density functional calculations including the spin-orbit coupling, we demonstrate that anomalous Hall effect can be observed in not only germanides with general formula RMn$_2$Ge$_2$, where $R$ is a…
The entanglement of the charge, spin and orbital degrees of freedom can give rise to emergent behavior especially in thin films, surfaces and interfaces. Often, materials that exhibit those properties require large spin orbit coupling. We…
Oxide thin films and interfaces with strong spin-orbit coupling have recently shown exceptionally high charge-to-spin conversion, making them potential spin-source materials for spintronics. Epitaxial strain engineering using oxide…
We experimentally investigate and quantitatively analyze the spin Hall magnetoresistance effect in ferromagnetic insulator/platinum and ferromagnetic insulator/nonferromagnetic metal/platinum hybrid structures. For the ferromagnetic…
Topological insulators can be seen as band-insulators with a conducting surface. The surface carriers are Dirac particles with an energy which increases linearly with momentum. This confers extraordinary transport properties characteristic…
We theoretically investigate the mechanism to generate large intrinsic spin Hall effect in iridates or more broadly in 5d transition metal oxides with strong spin-orbit coupling. We demonstrate such a possibility by taking the example of…
We compute the spin-orbit torque in a transition metal heterostructure using Slater-Koster parameterization in the two-center tight-binding approximation and accounting for d-orbitals only. In this method, the spin-orbit coupling is modeled…
We present a new ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) method that we term the Ferris FMR. It is wideband, has significantly higher sensitivity as compared to conventional FMR systems, and measures the absorption line rather than its derivative. It…
Devices based on a pure spin current (a flow of spin angular momentum) have been attracting increasing attention as key ingredients for low-dissipation electronics. To integrate such spintronics devices into charge-based technologies, an…
We propose an experimental scheme to determine the spin-transfer torque efficiency excited by the spin-orbit interaction in ferromagnetic bilayers from the measurement of the longitudinal magnetoresistace. Solving a diffusive spin-transport…
We study orbital and spin-orbit proximity effects in graphene adsorbed to the Cu(111) surface by means of density functional theory (DFT). The proximity effects are caused mainly by the hybridization of graphene $\pi$ and copper d orbitals.…
Little is known about the spin-flip diffusion length $l_{\rm sf}$, one of the most important material parameters in the field of spintronics. We use a density-functional-theory based scattering approach to determine values of $l_{\rm sf}$…
Non-collinear antiferromagnets exhibits richer magneto-transport properties due to the topologically nontrivial spin structure they possess compared to conventional nonmagnetic materials, which allows us to manipulate the charge-spin…
With minima in the diagonal conductance G_{xx} and in the absolute value of the derivative |dG_{xy}/dB| at the Hall conductance value G_{xy}=e^{2}/h, spin-splitting is observed in the quantum Hall effect of heavily Si-doped GaAs layers with…
High-entropy alloys (HEAs) exhibit various physical properties, such as high microhardness for structured materials and high efficiency for catalysis. These features are recognized as a cocktail effect of five or more elements that…
It is well known that skyrmions can be driven using spin-orbit torques due to the spin-Hall effect. Here we show an additional contribution in multilayered stacks arises from vertical spin currents due to inter-layer diffusion of a spin…
