We show that one-photon absorption of linearly polarized light should produce pure spin currents in noncentrosymmetric semiconductors, including even bulk GaAs. We present 14x14 k.p model calculations of the effect in GaAs, including…
DC photoelectrical currents can be generated purely as a non-linear effect in uniform media lacking inversion symmetry without the need for a material junction or bias voltages to drive it, in what is termed photogalvanic effect. These…
Two-dimensional photonic circuits with high capacity are essential for a wide range of applications in next-generation photonic information technology and optoelectronics. Here we demonstrate a multi-channel spin-dependent photonic device…
The recent discovery of materials hosting persistent spin texture (PST) opens an avenue for the realization of energy-saving spintronics since they support an extraordinarily long spin lifetime. However, the stability of the PST is…
After the first unequivocal demonstration of spin transport in graphene (Tombros et al., 2007), surprisingly at room temperature, it was quickly realized that this novel material was relevant for both fundamental spintronics and future…
We present a theory of ultrafast photo-induced dynamics in a spin-charge coupled system, motivated by pump-probe experiments in perovskite manganites. A microscopic picture for multiple dynamics in spin and charge degrees is focused on.…
Structured optical fields can be used for the injection and control of charge and spin-valley currents. Here, we present a systematical study of these phenomena for interband absorption of structured light in 2D Dirac materials. We derive…
Noncentrosymmetric bulk crystals generate photocurrent without any bias voltage. One of the dominant mechanisms, shift current, comes from a quantum interference of electron wave functions being distinct from classical current caused by…
Spin-orbit torque provides an efficient pathway to manipulate the magnetic state and magnetization dynamics of magnetic materials, which is crucial for energy-efficient operation of a variety of spintronic devices such as magnetic memory,…
Gauge invariance, a core principle in electrodynamics, has two separate meanings. One concept treats the photon as the gauge particle for electrodynamics. It is based on symmetries of the Lagrangian, and requires no mention of electric or…
We describe theoretically the process of multi-beam reflection in a two-dimensional electron system with a lateral potential barrier. Due to spin-orbital interaction, the reflection process leads to the formation of three beams with…
Two dimensional (2D) magnets have emerged as a compelling platform for spin based nanoelectronics, enabling atomic scale control of magnetic order, interfaces, quantum geometry, and symmetry. Here, we highlight recent advances in 2D…
Coherent control of optically-injected carrier distributions in single and bilayer graphene allows the injection of electrical currents. Using a tight-binding model and Fermi's golden rule, we derive the carrier and photocurrent densities…
We propose a new scheme of spin filtering employing ballistic nanostructures in two dimensional electron gases (2DEGs). The proposal is essentially based on the spin-orbit (SO) interaction arising from the lateral confining electric field.…
Spin current plays a central role in spintronics. In particular, finding more efficient ways to generate spin current has been an important issue and studied actively. For example, representative methods of spin current generation include…
Due to the difficulty to grow high quality semiconductors on ferromagnetic metals, the study of spin diffusion transport in Si was only limited to lateral geometry devices. In this work, by using ultra-high vacuum wafer-bonding technique,…
The scattering matrix approach to phase-coherent transport is generalized to nonlinear ac-transport. In photon-assisted electron transport it is often only the dc-component of the current that is of experimental interest. But ac-currents at…
Q. Ma et al.[1] recently reported a strong photocurrent associated with charge neutrality in graphene devices with non-uniform geometries, which they interpreted as an intrinsic photoresponse enhanced by the momentum non-relaxing nature of…
We construct an effective field theory for the 2d spineless p-wave paired superconductor that faithfully describes the topological properties of the bulk state, and also provides a model for the subgap states at vortex cores and edges. In…
We investigate double quantum dots defined by electrostatic gating in semiconductor PbTe nanowire devices. We perform transport measurements to obtain charge stability diagrams distinguished by negligible separation between paired triple…
