Spin splittings in III-V materials and heterostructures are of interest because of potential applications, mainly in spintronic devices. A necessary condition for the existence of these spin splittings is the absence of inversion symmetry.…
The chiral crystal is characterized by a lack of mirror symmetry and an inversion center, resulting in the inequivalent right- and left-handed structures. In the noncentrosymmetric crystal structure, the spin and momentum of electrons are…
$\gamma$-triclinic and $\alpha$-monoclinic polymorphs of CoV$_{2}$O$_{6}$ are two of the few known transition metal ion based materials that display stepped $1/3$ magnetization plateaus at low temperatures. Neutron diffraction [M. Markkula…
Recent experiments on the kagome metal CsV$_3$Sb$_5$ reveal a curious phase transition-like feature: a nematic magnetic torque response that abruptly sets in at $T_\tau \approx 130$K, above the known charge density wave transition at…
The origin of spin-orbit torques generated from the conversion of charge-to-spin currents is of considerable debate. Solid understanding of the physics behind is key to the development of current and voltage controlled switching dynamics in…
Strong spin-orbital coupling (SOC) was found previously to lead to dramatic effects in quantum materials, such as those found in topological insulators. It was shown theoretically that local noncentrosymmetricity resulting from the rotation…
In non-magnetic bulk materials, inversion symmetry protects the spin degeneracy. If the bulk crystal structure lacks a centre of inversion, however, spin-orbit interactions lift the spin degeneracy, leading to a Rashba metal whose Fermi…
Using a three-dimensional focused-ion beam lithography process we have fabricated nanopillar devices which show spin transfer torque switching at zero external magnetic fields. Under a small in-plane external bias field, a field-dependent…
High-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy has been performed on Sb(111) to elucidate the origin of anomalous electronic properties in group-V semimetal surfaces. The surface was found to be metallic despite the semimetallic…
Angle-resolved spin-torque ferromagnetic resonance measurements are carried out in heterostructures consisting of Py (Ni$_{81}$Fe$_{19}$) and a noncollinear antiferromagnetic quantum material $\gamma-$IrMn$_{3}$. The structural…
The lack of certain crystalline symmetries in strong spin-orbit-coupled non-magnetic materials allows for the existence of uncoventional spin Hall responses, with electrically generated transverse spin currents possessing collinear flow and…
Half-metals have fully spin polarized charge carriers at the Fermi surface. Such polarization usually occurs due to strong electron--electron correlations. Recently [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf{119}}, 107601 (2017)], we have demonstrated…
We report 29Si-NMR study on a single crystal of the heavy-fermion superconductor CeIrSi3 without an inversion symmetry along the c-axis. The 29Si-Knight shift measurements under pressure have revealed that the spin susceptibility for the…
The effective crystal field in multi-orbital correlated materials can be either enhanced or reduced by electronic correlations with crucial consequences for the topology of the Fermi surface and, hence, on the physical properties of these…
Current induced magnetization switching by spin-orbit torques offers an energy-efficient means of writing information in heavy metal/ferromagnet (FM) multilayer systems. The relative contributions of field-like torques and damping-like…
We compute the spin-orbit torque in a transition metal heterostructure using Slater-Koster parameterization in the two-center tight-binding approximation and accounting for d-orbitals only. In this method, the spin-orbit coupling is modeled…
It is shown that the charge susceptibility in nearly half-filled two-dimensional (2D) metals, with technically nested Fermi surface, shows anomaly at the wavevector different from that for the spin susceptibility at low temperatures. Namely…
Superconductivity in crystals without inversion symmetry has received extensive attention due to its unconventional pairing and possible nontrivial topological properties. Using first-principles calculations, we systemically study the…
Noncentrosymmetric metals such as Li$_2$(Pd$_{1-x}$Pt$_x$)$_3$B have different Fermi surface topology below and above the band touching point where spin-degeneracy is not lifted by the spin-orbit coupling. We investigate thermoelectric and…
We investigate the spin torque in the topological phase of the 3Q antiferromagnetic (AFM) configuration. We first obtain the band structure to identify the topology and nature of the different gaps of the system and then calculate the spin…
