A decade of intense research on two-dimensional (2D) atomic crystals has revealed that their properties can differ greatly from those of the parent compound. These differences are governed by changes in the band structure due to quantum…
Ferromagnetic metals, with the potential to generate spin current with unconventional spin polarization via the spin Hall effect, offer promising opportunities for field-free switching of perpendicular magnetization and for the spin-orbit…
The spin Hall effect and its inverse play key roles in spintronic devices since they allow conversion of charge currents to and from spin currents. The conversion efficiency strongly depends on material details, such as the electronic band…
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,…
NiI2 is an exotic van der Waals material in which a noncollinear spin spiral breaks spatial inversion symmetry without sizeable structural distortion, generating improper ferroelectric polarization, and stabilizing p-wave magnetic states…
We envision that quantum spin Hall effect should be observed in $(111)$-oriented thin films of SnSe and SnTe topological crystalline insulators. Using a tight-binding approach supported by first-principles calculations of the band…

We demonstrate the formation of orbital and spin Hall effects (OHE/SHE) in the 1T phase of non-magnetic transition metal dichalcogenides. With the aid of density functional theory calculations and model Hamiltonian studies on MX$_2$ (M =…
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…
Topological polaritons, combining the robustness of the topological protected edge states to defects and disorder with the strong nonlinear properties of polariton bosons, represent an excellent platform to investigate novel photonic…
We study nonlinear optical responses in superconducting systems with inversion ($\mathcal{I}$) symmetry-breaking order parameters. We first show that any superconducting system with $\mathcal{I}$ and time-reversal ($\mathcal{T}$) symmetries…
High density data storage and spin-logic devices require highly efficient all-electric control of spin moments. So far, charge-to-spin conversion through the spin Hall effect (SHE) highly limits to d-orbital materials associated with strong…
Recent theories predict dissipationless spin current induced by an electric field in doped semiconductors. Nevertheless, the charge current is still dissipative in these systems. In this work, we theoretically predict the dissipationless…

Second harmonic generation (SHG) is a nonlinear optical response arising exclusively from broken inversion symmetry in the electric-dipole limit. Recently, SHG has attracted widespread interest as a versatile and noninvasive tool for…
A pure spin current formed by opposite spins moving in opposite directions is a rank-2 axial tensor which breaks the inversion symmetry. Thus a spin current has a second-order optical susceptibility, with unique polarization-dependence…
Two-dimensional systems with honeycomb lattice are known to be a paradigmatic platform to explore the various types of Hall effects, owing to that the interplay of lattice geometry, spin-orbit coupling and magnetism can give rise to very…
Optical second-harmonic generation (SHG) is a nonlinear parametric process that doubles the frequency of incoming light. Only allowed in non-centrosymmetric materials, it has been widely used in frequency modulation of lasers, surface…
Charge-spin interconversion in magnetic materials is investigated by using first-principles calculations. In addition to the conventional spin Hall effect (SHE) that requires mutual orthogonality of the charge current, spin-flow direction,…
In the second-order response regime, the Hall voltage can be nonzero without breaking the time-reversal symmetry, as long as the system is noncentrosymmetric. There are multiple mechanisms with different scaling rules that contribute to the…
