Voltage control of magnetism and spintronics have been highly desirable, but rarely realized. In this work, we show voltage-controlled spin-orbit torque (SOT) switching in W/CoFeB/MgO films with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) with…
Using first-principles density-functional theory (DFT) calculations, we investigate the 4/3-monolayer structure of Pb on the Si(111) or Ge(111) surface within the two competing structural models termed the H$_3$ and T$_4$ structures. We…
We consider the separate spin channel contributions to the charge conductance in superconducting/ferromagnetic spin valve $F_1/N/F_2/S$ structures. We find that the up- and down-spin conductance contributions may have a very different…
We demonstrate how the Rashba spin-orbit coupling in semiconductor heterostructures can produce and control a spin-polarized current without ferromagnetic leads. Key idea is to use spin-double refraction of an electronic beam with a nonzero…
We describe a method of controlling the spin wave spectra dynamically in a uniform nanostripe waveguide through spin-polarized currents. A stable periodic magnetization structure is observed when the current flows vertically through the…
We study heterostructures of singlet superconductors (SC) and strongly spin-polarized ferromagnets (sFM) and show that a relative phase arises between the superconducting proximity amplitudes in the two ferromagnetic spin bands. We find a…
The emerging field of nano-magnonics utilizes high-frequency waves of magnetization - the spin waves - for the transmission and processing of information on the nanoscale. The advent of spin-transfer torque has spurred significant advances…
We demonstrate that information can be transmitted and processed with pure spin currents in silicon. Fe/Al2O3 tunnel barrier contacts are used to produce significant electron spin polarization in the silicon, generating a spin current which…
The band structure of two-dimensional artificial superlattices in the presence of (Rashba-type) spin-orbit interaction (SOI) is presented. The position and shape of the energy bands in these spintronic crystals depend on the geometry as…
Ionic transport in nanofluidic channels holds great promise for applications such as single-molecule analysis, molecular manipulation, and energy harvesting. However, achieving precise control over ion transport remains a major challenge.…
Control over quantum systems is typically achieved by time-dependent electric or magnetic fields. Alternatively, electronic spins can be controlled by spin-polarized currents. Here we demonstrate coherent driving of a single spin by a…
High spin polarization materials or spin filters are key components in spintronics, a niche subfield of electronics where carrier spins play a functional role. Carrier transmission through these materials is "spin selective" i.e. these…
We show that the resonant coupling of phonons and magnons can be exploited to generate spin currents at room temperature. Surface acoustic wave (SAW) pulses with a frequency of 1.55 GHz and duration of 300 ns provide coherent elastic waves…
In this work we fabricate and characterize a functionalized superconducting (SC) Nb tip of a scanning tunnelling microscope (STM). The tip is functionalized with a Tetracyanoquinodimethane molecule (TCNQ) that accepts charge from the tip…
Deterministic current-induced spin-orbit torque (SOT) switching of magnetization in a heavy transition metal/ferromagnetic metal/oxide magnetic heterostructure with the ferromagnetic layer being perpendicularly-magnetized typically requires…
We show that Rashba spin-orbit coupling at the interface between a superconductor and a ferromagnet should produce a spontaneous current in the atomic thickness region near the interface. This current is counter-balanced by the…
We develop a realistic and analytically tractable model to describe the spin current which arises in a quantum point contact (QPC) with spin-orbit interaction (SOI) upon a small voltage is applied. In the model, the QPC is considered as a…
A scheme of spin diode is proposed that uses a step-like quantum wire with Rashba spin-orbit interaction, connected to two leads with different width. It is shown that a very large vertical spin-polarized current can be generated when…
Using standard quantum network method, we analytically investigate the effect of Rashba spin-orbit coupling (RSOC) and a magnetic field on the spin transport properties of a polygonal quantum ring. Using Landauer-Buttiker formula, we have…
We have examined the intrinsic spin-orbit coupling (SOC) and orbital depairing in thin films of Nb-doped SrTiO$_3$ by superconducting tunneling spectroscopy. The orbital depairing is geometrically suppressed in the two-dimensional limit,…
