Model calculation and experimental data of circularly-polarized-light-dependent photocurrent in a n-AlGaAs/p-InGaAs/p-GaAs heterostructure are reported. It is found that, under the appropriate forward bias condition, spin voltaic effect…
The generation, manipulation and detection of spin-polarized electrons in nanostructures define the main challenges of spin-based electronics[1]. Amongst the different approaches for spin generation and manipulation, spin-orbit coupling,…
We study a two-dimensional electron system in the presence of spin-orbit interaction. It is shown analytically that the spin-orbit interaction acts as a transversal effective electric field, whose orientation depends on the sign of the…
It is well known that spin angular momentum of light, and therefore that of photons, is directly related to their circular polarization. Naturally, for totally unpolarized light, polarization is undefined and the spin vanishes. However, for…
Band topology and related spin (or pseudo-spin) physics of photons provide us with a new dimension for manipulating light, which is potentially useful for information communication and data storage. Especially, the quantum spin Hall effect…
The measured Hall angle in a ferromagnetic nanomagnet shows a substantial non-linear dependence on an external magnetic field, which cannot be explained by adopted mechanisms of the Ordinary and Anomalous (AHE) Hall effects implying a…

Optical control of electronic spins is the basis for ultrafast spintronics: circularly polarized light in combination with spin-orbit coupling of the electronic states allows for spin manipulation in condensed matter. However, the…
Spin-orbit coupling is a fundamental mechanism that connects the spin of a charge carrier with its momentum. Likewise, in the optical domain, a synthetic spin-orbit coupling is accessible, for instance, by engineering optical anisotropies…
The spin Hall effect (SHE) allows efficient generation of spin polarization or spin current through charge current and plays a crucial role in the development of spintronics. While SHE typically occurs in non-magnetic materials and is…
