Efficient manipulation of magnetic order with electric current pulses is desirable for achieving fast spintronic devices. The Rashba-Edelstein effect, wherein a spin polarization is electrically induced in noncentrosymmetric systems,…

We formulate a theory of current-induced spin torques in inhomogeneous III-V ferromagnetic semiconductors. The carrier spin-3/2 and large spin-orbit interaction, leading to spin non-conservation, introduce significant conceptual differences…

Antiferromagnets are outstanding candidates for the next generation of spintronic applications, with great potential for downscaling and decreasing power consumption. Recently, the manipulation of bulk properties of antiferromagnets has…

The development of magnetic heterostructures with strong spin-orbit torques (SOTs), low impedance, strong perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA), and good integration compatibility at the same time is central for high-performance…

Using a semiclassical approach that simultaneously incorporates the spin Hall effect (SHE), spin diffusion, quantum well states, and interface spin-orbit coupling (SOC), we address the interplay of these mechanisms as the origin of the…

Understanding the evolution of spin-orbit torque (SOT) with increasing heavy-metal thickness in ferromagnet/normal metal (FM/NM) bilayers is critical for the development of magnetic memory based on SOT. However, several experiments have…

We present a theoretical study of nonlocal magnetoelectric effects in diffusive hybrid structures with an intrinsic linear-in-momentum spin-orbit coupling (SOC) which is assumed to be spatially inhomogeneous. Our analysis is based on the…

Spin-orbit torques (SOTs) have opened a new path to switch the magnetization in perpendicularly magnetized films and are of great interest due to their potential applications in novel data storage technology, such as the magnetic random…

Spin-orbit torques (SOTs) are widely used to control magnetization in nanoscale electric systems and are typically assumed to drive skyrmion nucleation and motion in a deterministic manner, especially in materials with strong…

We investigate from first principles the field-like spin-orbit torques (SOTs) in a Ag$_{2}$Bi-terminated Ag(111) film grown on ferromagnetic Fe(110). We find that a large part of the SOT arises from the spin-orbit interaction (SOI) in the…

We present an {\it ab initio}-based theoretical framework which elucidates the origin of the spin-orbit torque (SOT) in Normal-Metal(NM)/Ferromagnet(FM) heterostructures. The SOT is decomposed into two contributions, namely, {\it spin-Hall}…

We derive an intrinsic contribution to the non-adiabatic spin torque for non-uniform magnetic textures. It differs from previously considered contributions in several ways and can be the dominant contribution in some models. It does not…

We show that the extrinsic spin Hall effect can be engineered in monolayer graphene by decoration with small doses of adatoms, molecules, or nanoparticles originating local spin-orbit perturbations. The analysis of the single impurity…

Spin-orbit torques (SOTs) from transition metal dichalcogenides systems (TMDs) in conjunction with ferromagnetic materials are recently attractive in spintronics for their versatile features. However, most of the previously studied…

An influence of spin-orbit interaction on the tunneling between two 2D electron layers is considered. Particular attention is addressed to the relation between the contribution of Rashba and Dresselhaus types. It is shown that without…

We demonstrate how the Rashba spin-orbit coupling in semiconductor heterostructures can produce and control a spin-polarized current without ferromagnetic leads. Key idea is to use spin-double refraction of an electronic beam with a nonzero…

The broken inversion symmetry at the surface of a metallic film (or, more generally, at the interface between a metallic film and a different metallic or insulating material) greatly amplifies the influence of the spin-orbit interaction on…
