We investigate the spin dynamics and relaxation in remotely-doped two dimensional electron systems where the dopants lead to random fluctuations of the Rashba spin-orbit coupling. Due to the resulting random spin precession, the spin…

Until recently, spin-polarization in nonmagnetic materials was the exclusive territory of non- centrosymmetric structures. It was recently shown that a form of hidden spin polarization (named the Rashba-2 or R-2 effect) could exist in…

An unexpected finding two decades ago demonstrated that Shockley electron states in noble metal surfaces are spin-polarized, forming a circulating spin texture in reciprocal space. The fundamental role played by the spin degree of freedom…

It is generally accepted that oxygen vacancies play a central role in the emergence of ferroelectricity for HfO2-based materials, but the underlying mechanism still remains elusive. Herein, starting from the basic characterization circuit,…

We study the spin relaxation torque in nonmagnetic or ferromagnetic metals with nonuniform spin-orbit coupling within the Keldysh Green's function formalism. In non-magnet, the relaxation torque is shown to arise when the spin-orbit…

Photoinduced nonequilibrium spin structure is examined in the double-exchange model, in which itinerant electrons couple with localized spins through the ferromagnetic Hund coupling. In particular, we focus on the transient spin structure…

Recently the influence of antisymmetric spin-orbit coupling has been studied in novel topological superconductors such as half-Heuslers and artificial hetero-structures. We investigate the effect of Rashba and/or Dresselhaus spin-orbit…

Recent experiments have shown that transition metal oxide heterostructures such as SrTiO$_3$-based interfaces, exhibit large, gate tunable, spintronic responses. Our theoretical study showcases key factors controlling the magnitude of the…

The aim of the paper is to study the electron spin direction dependence on momentum due to the presence of Rashba spin-orbit coupling in the pseudo-gap phase of Bi2212 bilayer. The non-trivial spin texture in k-space is found tuneable by…

Because of the peculiar coupling of spatial and spin degrees of freedom effected by the Rashba spin-orbit interaction, lateral confinement of a two dimensional electronic system leads to a finite transverse spin polarization near the…

We construct the general free energy governing long-wavelength magnetism in two-dimensional oxide heterostructures, which applies irrespective of the microscopic mechanism for magnetism. This leads, in the relevant regime of weak but…

Topological materials host robust surface states, which could form the basis for future electronic devices. As such states have spins that are locked to the momentum, they are of particular interest for spintronic applications.…

All-electric-controlled nonvolatile spin field-effect transistors (SFETs) based on two-dimensional (2D) multiferroic van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures hold great promise for advanced spintronics applications. However, their performance…

The electronic and optoelectronic properties of two dimensional materials have been extensively explored in graphene and layered transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs). Spintronics in these two-dimensional materials could provide novel…

We study the coherent transport of heavy holes through a one-dimensional ring in the presence of spin-orbit coupling. Spin-orbit interaction of holes, cubic in the in-plane components of momentum, gives rise to an angular momentum dependent…

Studies of structure-property relationships in spintronics are essential for the design of materials that can fill specific roles in devices. For example, materials with low symmetry allow unconventional configurations of charge-to-spin…

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,…

During the last years there has been much interest, and theoretical discussion, about the possibility to use spin-orbit coupling to control the carriers spins in two-dimensional semiconducting heterostructures. Spin polarization at the…
