The Rashba spin-orbit coupling effect, primarily arising from structural-inversion asymmetry in periodic crystals, has garnered considerable attention due to its tunability and potential applications in spintronics. Its capability to…
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…
The experimental evidence of the ultra-high electron mobility and strong spin-orbit coupling in the two-dimensional (2D) layered bismuth-based oxyselenide, Bi$_{2}$O$_{2}$Se, makes it a potential material for spintronic devices. However,…
Materials with large unidirectional Rashba spin-orbit coupling (SOC), resulting in persistent-spin helix states with small spin-precession length, are critical for advancing spintronics. We demonstrate a design principle achieving it…
We propose the lead sulphide (PbS) monolayer as a 2D semiconductor with a large Rashba-like spin-orbit effect controlled by the out-of-plane buckling. The buckled PbS conduction band is found to possess Rashba-like dispersion and spin…
The generally accepted view that spin polarization is induced by the asymmetry of the global crystal space group has limited the search for spintronics [1] materials to non-centrosymmetric materials. Recently it has been suggested that spin…
The new two-dimensional materials, MoSi$_2$N$_4$ and WSi$_2$N$_4$ are experimentally synthesized successfully and various similar structures are predicted theoretically. Here, we report the electronic properties with a special focus on the…
Each unit cell in YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+x}$ contains a pair of two-dimensional CuO$_2$ layers. While the crystal structure is globally inversion symmetric, the individual layers are not. This leads, necessarily, to a nonvanishing Rashba…
Superconductivity in the two-dimensional (2D) limit is a fertile ground for exotic quantum phenomena-many of which remain elusive in their 3D counterparts. While studies of 2D superconductivity have predominantly focused on mono- or…
We report the experimental observation of the spin-Hall effect in a two-dimensional (2D) hole system with Rashba spin-orbit coupling. The 2D hole layer is a part of a p-n junction light-emitting diode with a specially designed co-planar…
Search of novel two-dimensional giant Rashba semiconductors is a crucial step in the development of the forthcoming nano-spintronics technology. Using first-principle calculations, we study a stable two-dimensional crystal phase of BiSb…
We investigate the two-dimensional (2D) highly spin-polarized electron accumulation layers commonly appearing near the surface of n-type polar semiconductors BiTeX (X = I, Br, and Cl) by angular-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. Due to…
Designing two-dimensional (2D) Rashba semiconductors, exploring the underlying mechanism of Rashba effect, and further proposing efficient and controllable approaches are crucial for the development of spintronics. On the basis of…
Spintronics is aimed at active controlling and manipulating the spin degrees of freedom in semiconductor devices. A promising way to achieve this goal is to make use of the tunable Rashba effect that relies on the spin-orbit interaction…
Intrinsic and extrinsic spin Hall effects are considered together on an equal theoretical footing for the Rashba spin-orbit coupling in two-dimensional (2D) electron and hole systems, using the diagrammatic method for calculating the spin…
A recent 2D spinFET concept proposes to switch electrostatically between two separate sublayers with strong and opposite intrinsic Rashba effects. This concept exploits the spin-layer locking mechanism present in centrosymmetric materials…
We report the direct observation of interband spin-orbit (SO) coupling in a two-dimensional (2D) surface electron system, in addition to the anticipated Rashba spin splitting. Using angle-resolved photoemission experiments and…
Spin current generation and manipulation remain the key challenge of spintronics, in which relativistic spinorbit coupling (SOC) play a ubiquitous role. In this letter, we demonstrate that hidden Rashba spins in the non-magnetic,…
Spin-orbit interaction and structure inversion asymmetry in combination with magnetic ordering is a promising route to novel materials with highly mobile spin-polarized carriers at the surface. Spin-resolved measurements of the…
Hidden Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-splittings in centrosymmetric crystals with subunits (sectors) having non-centrosymmetric symmetries (the R-2 and D-2 effects) have been predicted and observed experimentally, but the microscopic mechanism…
