Layers of perovskites, found in 3D materials, 2D heterostructures, and nanotubes, often distort from high symmetry to facilitate dipole polarisation that is exploitable in many applications. Using density-functional theory calculations,…

Lateral heterostructures of two-dimensional (2D) materials, integrating different phases or materials into a single piece of nanosheet, have attracted intensive research interests in the past few years for high-performance electronic and…

An outstanding feature of topological quantum materials is their novel spin topology in the electronic band structures with an expected large charge-to-spin conversion efficiency. Here, we report a charge current-induced spin polarization…

We report that an external electric field applied normal to bilayers of transition-metal dichalcogenides TX2, M = Mo, W, X = S, Se, creates significant spin-orbit splittings and reduces the electronic band gap linearly with the field…

Finding a new class of materials supporting a long spin lifetime is essential in development of energy-saving spintronics, which is achievable by using a persistent spin helix (PSH) materials. However, for spintronic devices, the PSH states…

The quest for electric-field control of nanoscale magnetic states such as skyrmions, which would impact the field of spintronics, has led to a challenging search for multiferroic materials or structures with strong magnetoelectric coupling…

Two-dimensional (2D) ferroelectrics, which is rare in nature, enable high-density non-volatile memory with low energy consumption. Here, we propose a theory of bilayer stacking ferroelectricity (BSF), in which, two stacked layers of the…

Spin splitting and the resulting spin texture are central to emerging spintronic applications. In non-centrosymmetric non-magnetic materials containing heavy elements, spin textures are typically governed by low-order, momentum-dependent…

Magnetic skyrmions are intriguing topological spin textures that have attracted great attention due to their potential for future spintronic devices. Skyrmions have so far been explored in different magnetic materials, such as ferromagnets,…

For static crystals it is well known that electronic states are doubly degenerate in their spin degree of freedom in the presence of time reversal and inversion symmetries. This degeneracy can only be lifted by either (i) breaking time…
