We report various phase transitions in half-Heusler TbPtBi compound using Density Functional Theory (DFT). Specifically, inclusion of spin-orbit coupling (SOC) leads to band inversion resulting in transition from the metallic to the…

We investigate the spin- and energy dependent tunneling through a single organic molecule (CoPc) adsorbed on a ferromagnetic Fe thin film, spatially resolved by low-temperature spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy. Interestingly,…

Non-van der Waals two-dimensional (2D) materials derived from strongly bonded non-layered crystals have recently emerged as a novel and rising platform for nanoscale research. While uncovering and tuning their (opto-)electronic, catalytic,…

Recent theory and experiment have revealed that strong spin-orbit coupling can have dramatic qualitative effects on the band structure of weakly interacting solids. Indeed, it leads to a distinct phase of matter, the topological band…

We investigate the effect of the twist angle on the proximity spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in graphene/NbSe$_2$ heterostructures from first principles. The low-energy Dirac bands of several different commensurate twisted supercells are fitted…

Recently, the effects of spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in correlated materials have become one of the most actively studied subjects in condensed matter physics, as correlations and SOC together can lead to the discovery of new phases. Among…

The theoretical understanding of the spin-orbit coupling (SOC) effects at LaAlO$_{3}$/SrTiO$_{3}$ interfaces and SrTiO$_{3}$ surfaces is still in its infancy. We perform first-principles density-functional-theory calculations and derive…

The 5d pyrochlore oxide superconductor Cd2Re2O7 (CRO) has attracted significant interest as a spin-orbit-coupled metal (SOCM) that spontaneously undergoes a phase transition to an odd-parity multipole phase by breaking the spatial inversion…

It is generally believed that spin-orbit coupling (SOC) follows Z4 (atomic number) dependence and becomes significant only in heavy elements. Consequently, SOC in 3d transition metals should be negligible given their small Z. Using dynamic…

Oxide heterostructures with polar films display special electronic properties, such as the electronic reconstruction at their internal interfaces with the formation of two-dimensional metallic states. Moreover, the electrical field from the…

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…

Group IV heavy elements atomic layers are expected to show an interesting physical properties due to their large spin-orbit coupling (SOC). Using density functional theory (DFT) calculations with/without SOC we investigate the variation of…

Energy bands in antiferromagnets are generally spin degenerate in the absence of spin-orbit coupling (SOC). Recent studies [Physical Review B 102, 014422 (2020)] identified formal symmetry conditions for crystals for which this degeneracy…

Spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in solids normally originates from the electron motion in the electric field of the crystal. It is key to understanding a variety of spin-transport and topological phenomena, such as Majorana fermions and recently…

The electronic structure of materials is fundamentally governed by their crystal symmetry. While most research on two-dimensional materials has focused on hexagonal lattices, such as graphene, hexagonal boron nitride, and transition metal…

Current-induced spin-orbit torque (SOT) plays a crucial role in the next-generation spin-orbitronics. Enhancing its efficiency is both fundamentally and practically interesting and remains a challenge to date. Recently, orbital counterparts…

Spin-orbit torque (SOT) in the heavy elements with a large spin-orbit coupling (SOC) has been frequently used to manipulate the magnetic states in spintronic devices. Recent theoretical works have predicted that the surface oxidized light…

Realization of spin crossover (SCO) based applications requires studying of spin state switching characteristics of SCO complex molecules at nanostructured environments especially on-surface. Except for a very few cases, the SCO of a…

Spin orbit coupling (SOC) is the key to realizing time-reversal invariant topological phases of matter. Famously, SOC was predicted by Kane and Mele to stabilize a quantum spin Hall insulator; however, the weak intrinsic SOC in monolayer…
