Spin fluctuation and transition have always been one of central topics of magnetism and condensed matter science. Experimentally, the spin fluctuation is found transcribed onto scattering intensity in the neutron scattering process, which…

To mitigate climate change, our global society is harnessing direct (solar irradiation) and indirect (wind/water flow) sources of renewable electrical power generation. Emerging direct sources include current-producing thermal gradients in…

A prominent feature of $d$-wave altermagnets is that spin current is generated by applying temperature gradient, which is known as the spin-Nernst effect. We show in $f$-wave magnets that spin current is generated proportional to the square…

Pure spin currents transport angular momentum without an associated charge flow. This unique property makes them attractive for spintronics applications, such as torque induced magnetization control in nanodevices that can be used for…

Electrons in double-layer semiconductor heterostructures experience a special type of spin-orbit interaction which arises in each layer from the perpendicular component of the Coulomb electric field created by electron density fluctuations…

Recently, a new quantum phase, the topological insulator, has been vividly investigated in a variety of materials. Its unique bandstructure allows for optical generation and control of spin-polarized currents based on the circular…

We theoretically investigate the mechanism of spin current generation induced by elastic waves in nonrelativistic magnets referred to as altermagnets. By analyzing an $f$-wave altermagnet formed by a three-sublattice noncollinear…

In spinelectronics the spin degree of freedom is used to transmit and store information. Ideally this occurs without net charge currents in order to avoid energy dissipation due to Joule heating. To this end the ability to create pure spin…

Semiconductor point contacts can be a useful tool for producing spin-polarized currents in the presence of spin-orbit (SO) interaction. Neither magnetic fields nor magnetic materials are required. By numerical studies, we show that (i) the…

In certain members of the transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) family, laser pulses of oppositely circularly polarized light excite electrons of opposite spin. Here we show that in the few cycle limit such pulses generate not only a spin…

We theoretically show that a temporally oscillating spin-driven electromotive force or voltage with a large DC component can be generated by exciting microwave-active spin-wave modes of a skyrmion crystal confined in a quasi two-dimensional…

We theoretically study the spin-polarized transport through a single-molecule magnet, which is weakly coupled to ferromagnetic leads, by means of the rate-equation approach. We consider both the ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic…

As is well known the absorption of circularly polarized light in semiconductors results in optical orientation of electron spins and helicity-dependent electric photocurrent, and the absorption of linearly polarized light is accompanied by…

Conversion of thermal energy into magnonic spin currents and/or effective electric polarization promises new device functionalities. A versatile approach is presented here for generating and controlling open circuit magnonic spin currents…

The Doppler shift of the quasiparticle dispersion by charge currents is responsible for the critical supercurrents in superconductors and instabilities of the magnetic ground state of metallic ferromagnets. Here we predict an analogous…

A theory of spin-polarized transport in inhomogeneous magnetic semiconductors is developed and applied to magnetic/nonmagnetic p-n junctions. Several phenomena with possible spintronic applications are predicted, including spinvoltaic…

Although the absorption of light in a bulk homogeneous semiconductor produces photocarriers with non-zero momentum, it generally does not produce a current in the absence of an applied electric field because equal amounts of carriers with…

Magnetic materials show rich optical responses related to the magnetic order. These phenomena reflect the nature of their excitations, providing a powerful probe for the magnetic states and a way to control them. In recent years, such…

Spin currents can be generated through various mechanisms, including the piezospintronic effect, which arises when strain or lattice distortions induce a change in the dipolar spin moment, causing a pure spin current without necessarily…

A spin current has novel linear and second-order nonlinear optical effects due to its symmetry properties. With the symmetry analysis and the eight-band microscopic calculation we have systematically investigated the interaction between a…
