A key challenge in manipulating the magnetization in heavy-metal/ferromagnetic bilayers via the spin-orbit torque is to identify materials that exhibit an efficient charge-to-spin current conversion. Ab initio electronic structure…
It is generally believed that conductivity platform can only exist in insulator with topological nontrivial bulk occupied states. Such rule exhibits in two dimensional quantum (anomalous) Hall effect, quantum spin Hall effect, and three…
We study thin films of the high-entropy alloy system Al$_{x}$(CrMoW)$_{1-x}$, grown on Ta seed layers by magnetron co-sputtering. Between $x=0.2$ and $x=0.6$, a resistivity larger than 100$\mu\Omega$cm is achieved, with a peak of…
Generating pure spin currents via the spin Hall effect in heavy metals has been an active topic of research in the last decade. In order to reduce the energy required to efficiently switch neighbouring ferromagnetic layers for applications,…
Designing materials with enhanced spin charge conversion, i.e., with high spin Hall conductivity (SHC) and low longitudinal electric conductivity (hence large spin Hall angle (SHA)), is a challenging task, especially in the presence of a…
We have studied the charge to spin conversion in Bi$_{1-x}$Sb$_x$/CoFeB heterostructures. The spin Hall conductivity (SHC) of the sputter deposited heterostructures exhibits a high plateau at Bi-rich compositions, corresponding to the…
The spin Hall effect (SHE) is found to be strong in heavy transition metals (HM), such as Ta and W, in their amorphous and/or high resistivity form. In this work, we show that by employing a Cu-Ta binary alloy as buffer layer in an…
Spin-orbit torque manifested as an accumulated spin-polarized moment at nonmagnetic normal metal, and ferromagnet interfaces is a promising magnetization switching mechanism for spintronic devices. To fully exploit this in practice,…
We propose a spin Hall effect (SHE) enhancement mechanism due to Kramers-Weyl point (KWP) alignment in chiral topological semimetals with high Chern numbers (CNs). Through model Hamiltonian calculations, we identify enhancements in the…
Bulk-boundary correspondence is a foundational principle underlying the electronic band structure and physical behavior of topological quantum materials. Although it has been rigorously tested in topological systems where the physical…
We report a comprehensive study on the intrinsic spin Hall conductivity (SHC) of semimetals MoTe2 and WTe2 by ab initio calculation. Large SHC and desirable spin Hall angles have been discovered, due to the strong spin orbit coupling effect…
We investigate the spin Hall effect of W-Hf thin films, which exhibit a phase transition from a segregated phase mixture to an amorphous alloy below 70% W. The spin Hall angle was determined with a planar harmonic Hall voltage technique.…
Spin-1 chiral semimetal is a new state of quantum matter hosting unconventional chiral fermions that extend beyond the common Dirac and Weyl fermions. B20-type CoSi is a prototypal material that accommodates such an exotic quasiparticle. To…
Controlling charge-spin current conversion by electric fields is crucial in spintronic devices, which can be realized in diatom ferroelectric semiconductor GeTe where it is established that ferroelectricity can change the spin texture. We…
The spin Hall conductivity (SHC) and anomalous Hall conductivity (AHC) in more than 120 full Heusler compounds are calculated using density functional theory in a high-throughtput way. The electronic structures are mapped to the Wannier…
Spin Hall effect in metallic Pt is studied with first-principles relativistic band calculations. It is found that intrinsic spin Hall conductivity (SHC) is as large as $\sim 2000 (\hbar/e)(\Omega {\rm cm})^{-1}$ at low temperature, and…
A fully relativistic description of the spin-orbit induced spin Hall effect is presented that is based on Kubo's linear response formalism. Using an appropriate operator for the spin current density a Kubo-St\v{r}eda-like equation for the…
We have measured the spin torques of beta-Tantalum / Co20Fe60B20 bilayers versus Ta thickness at room temperature using an FMR technique. The spin Hall coefficient was calculated both from the observed change in damping coefficient of the…
Topological superconductors (TSC) become a focus of research due to the accompanying Majorana fermions. However, the experimentally reported TSC are extremely rare. The recent experiments reported the kagome TSC AV$_{3}$Sb$_{5}$ (A=K, Rb,…
We theoretically investigate the spin Hall conductivity (SHC) in topological Dirac semimetals (TDSMs) whose Dirac points are protected by rotational symmetry. On the basis of a general phase diagram of the system with time-reversal,…
