The intrinsic spin Hall conductivity of typical topological insulators Sb$_2$Se$_3$, Sb$_2$Te$_3$, Bi$_2$Se$_3$, and Bi$_2$Te$_3$ in the bulk form, is calculated from first-principles by using density functional theory and the linear…
We consider a disordered topological insulator thin film placed on the top of a ferromagnetic insulator with a perpendicular exchange field $M$ and subjected to a perpendicular electric field. The presence of ferromagnetic insulator causes…
We investigate the spin conductivity of topological insulators taking into account both the surface and quasi-two-dimensional bulk states. We apply a low-energy expansion of the Hamiltonian up to the third order in momentum and take into…
The highly efficient torques generated by 3D topological insulators make them a favourable platform for faster and more efficient magnetic memory devices. Recently, research into harnessing orbital angular momentum in orbital torques has…
To date, spin generation in three-dimensional topological insulators is primarily modeled as a single-surface phenomenon, attributed to the momentum-spin locking on each individual surface. In this article we propose a mechanism of spin…
The Hall conductivity given by the Kubo formula is a linear response of the quantum transverse transport to a weak electric field. It has been intensively studied for a quantum system without decoherence, but it is barely explored for…
We investigate spin transport in 2-dimensional insulators, with the long-term goal of establishing whether any of the transport coefficients corresponds to the Fu-Kane-Mele index which characterizes 2d time-reversal-symmetric topological…
Topological insulators and giant spin-orbit toque switching of nanomagnets are one of the frontier topics for the development of energy-efficient spintronic devices. Spin-circuit representations involving different materials and phenomena…
We investigate the influence of the hexagonal warping on the transport properties of the topological insulators. We study the charge conductivity within Kubo formalism in the first Born approximation using low energy expansion of the…
The third-rank tensor of the static spin Hall conductivity is investigated for two-dimensional (2D) topological insulators by electronic structure calculations. Its seeming quantization is numerically demonstrated for highly symmetric…
A fully relativistic description of the spin-orbit induced spin Hall effect is presented that is based on Kubo's linear response formalism. Using an appropriate operator for the spin current density a Kubo-St\v{r}eda-like equation for the…
We study spin conductivity of the surface states in a thin film of a topological insulator with Kubo formulas. Hybridization between the different sides of the film opens a gap at the Dirac point. We found that in the gapped region spin…
We propose models of two dimensional paramagnetic semiconductors where the intrinsic spin Hall effect is exactly quantized in integer units of a topological charge. The model describes a topological insulator in the bulk, and a "holographic…
Intrinsic spin Hall conductivities are calculated for strong spin-orbit Bi$_{1-x}$Sb$_x$ semimetals, from the Kubo formula and using Berry curvatures evaluated throughout the Brillouin zone from a tight-binding Hamiltonian. Nearly-crossing…
We theoretically investigate current-induced spin polarization in disordered topological insulator thin films with broken inversion symmetry under an applied in-plane electric field. Utilizing the Kubo formalism within the self-consistent…
We investigate the charge conductivity and current-induced spin polarization on the surface state of a three-dimensional topological insulator by including the hexagonal warping effect of Fermi surface both in classical and quantum…
We study the linear response of a spin current to a small electric field in a two-dimensional crystalline insulator with non-conserved spin. We adopt the spin current operator proposed in [J. Shi et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 076604 (2006)],…
Topological insulators are new class of materials which are characterized by a bulk band gap like ordinary band insulator but have protected conducting states on their edge or surface. These states emerge out due to the combination of…
We demonstrate that a quantum spin Hall current, spontaneously generated at the edge of a two-dimensional topological insulator, acts as a source of spin-pumping for a magnetic impurity with uniaxial anisotropy. One can then manipulate the…
The Kubo formula is used to calculate the spin-Hall conductivity in a spin-polarized two-dimensional electron system with Rashba-type spin-orbit interaction. As in the case of the unpolarized electron system, spin Hall conductivity is…
