A proposal to detect the purported canted antiferromagnet order for the $\nu=0$ quantum Hall state of graphene based on a two-terminal spin transport setup is theoretically discussed. In the presence of a magnetic field normal to the…
Bismuth antimony alloys (Bi$_x$Sb$_{1-x}$) provide a tuneable materials platform to study topological transport and spin-polarized surface states resulting from the nontrivial bulk electronic structure. In the two-dimensional limit, it is a…
Motivated by recent low-temperature magnetoresistance measurements in twisted bilayer graphene aligned with hexagonal Boron Nitride substrate, we perform a systematic study of possible symmetry breaking orders in this device at a filling of…
Topological phases of electrons such as topological insulators and quantum Hall states typically require strong spin-orbit coupling or magnetic fields. In this study, we consider an electron system coupled to a spin system, where electrons…
Gapless topological boundary states characterize nontrivial topological phases arising from the bulk-boundary correspondence in symmetry-protected topological materials, such as the emergence of helical edge states in a two-dimensional…
We study theoretically spin relaxation during phonon-assisted tunneling of a single electron in self-assembled InAs/GaAs quantum-dot molecules formed by vertically stacked dots. We find that the spin-flip tunneling rate may be as high as 1%…
The quantum Hall liquid is a novel state of matter with profound emergent properties such as fractional charge and statistics. Existence of the quantum Hall effect requires breaking of the time reversal symmetry caused by an external…
The interface between a solid and vacuum can become electronically distinct from the bulk. This feature, encountered in the case of quantum Hall effect, has a manifestation in insulators with topologically protected metallic surface states.…
Circuit theory has been tremendously successful in translating physical equations into circuit elements in organized form for further analysis and proposing creative designs for applications. With the advent of new materials and phenomena…
We propose an approach based on the generalized quantum mechanics to deal with the basic features of the spin Hall effect. We begin by considering two decoupled harmonic oscillators on the noncommutative plane and determine the solutions of…
In this numerical study we investigate the influence and interplay of disorder, spin-orbit coupling and magnetic field on the edge-transport in HgTe/CdTe quantum wells in the framework of coherent elastic scattering. We show that the edge…
We theoretically consider the spin Seebeck effect, the charge Seebeck coefficient, and the thermoelectric figure of merit in superconducting hybrid structures including either magnetic textures or intrinsic spin-orbit coupling. We…
We determine conditions on the filling of electrons in a crystalline lattice to obtain the equivalent of a band insulator -- a gapped insulator with neither symmetry breaking nor fractionalized excitations. We allow for strong interactions,…
It has been known that spin-dependent capacitances usually coexist with geometric capacitances in a magnetic multilayer. However, the charge and energy storage of the capacitance due to spin accumulation has not been fully understood. Here,…
Triangular lattice quasi-two-dimensional Mott insulators based on BEDT-TTF molecule and its analogies present a possibility to produce exotic phases by coupling charge and spin degrees of freedom. In this work we discuss magnetic properties…
We demonstrate a nonlinear Hall effect due to the boundary spin accumulation in Pt films grown on Al2O3 substrates. This Hall effect and the previously demonstrated Hanle magnetoresistance provide a complete picture of the spin-precession…
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…
We investigate spin pumping phenomena in polycrystalline CoFeB/Pt and CoFeB/Ta bilayers and the correlation between the effective spin mixing conductance $g^{\uparrow\downarrow}_{\rm eff}$ and the obtained voltages generated by the…
The coupled kinetic equation for density and spin Wigner functions are derived including spin-orbit coupling, electric and magnetic field as well as selfconsistent Hartree meanfields suited for SU(2) transport. The interactions are assumed…
We propose a generalized Dirac fermion description for the electronic state of graphene terminated by a zigzag edge. This description admits a spin-orbit coupling needed to preserve time-reversal invariance of the zigzag confinement,…
