There has been tremendous interest in manipulating electron and hole-spin states in low-dimensional structures for electronic and spintronic applications. We study the edge magnetic coupling and anisotropy in zigzag stanene nanoribbons, by…

A WSe$_2$ monolayer shows many interesting properties due to its spin-orbit coupling induced spin splitting in bands around the Fermi level and the spin-valley configuration. The orientation of the spin polarization in the relevant bands is…

Evidence for the quantum spin Hall (QSH) effect has been reported in several experimental systems in the form of approximately quantized edge conductance. However, the most fundamental feature of the QSH effect, spin-momentum locking in the…

Quantum anomalous Hall insulators are topologically characterized by non-zero integer Chern numbers, the sign of which depends on the direction of the exchange field that breaks time-reversal symmetry. This feature allows the manipulation…

Either in bulk form, or when exfoliated into atomically thin crystals, layered transition metal dichalcogenides are continuously leading to the discovery of new phenomena. The latest example is provided by 1T'-WTe$_2$, a semimetal recently…

The coupling between real-space inhomogeneities coordinates and spin (r-s) provides an alternative route to achieve efficient spin manipulation in spintronics beyond the conventional momentum-spin (k-s) coupling paradigm. Here we…

We develop a theory of nonlinear low-magnetic-field magnetotransport on a helical edge of a quantum spin Hall insulator due to the edge state coupling to bulk midgap states. We focus on the part of the nonlinear I-V characteristic that is…

We consider magnetotransport on a helical edge of a quantum spin Hall insulator, in the presence of bulk midgap states ``side-coupled" to the edge. In the presence of a magnetic field, the midgap levels are spin-split, and hybridization of…

We report on exceptionally long spin transport and giant spin lifetime anisotropy in the gapped surface states of three-dimensional (3D) magnetic topological insulators (MTIs). We examine the properties of these states using the…

Tungsten diselenide, WSe2 shows excellent properties and become very promising material among two dimensional semiconductors. Wide band gap and large spin-orbit coupling along with naturally lacking inversion symmetry in the monolayer WSe2…

Altermagnets exhibit a spin-split band structure despite having zero net magnetization, leading to special magnonic properties such as anisotropic magnon lifetimes and field-free spin transport. Here, we present a direct experimental…

A strong coupling between the electron spin and its motion is one of the prerequisites of spin-based data storage and electronics. A major obstacle is to find spin-orbit coupled materials where the electron spin can be probed and…

Monolayer WTe2 is predicted to be a quantum spin Hall insulator (QSHI) and electron transport along its edges has been experimentally observed. However, the 'smoking gun' of QSHI, spin momentum locking of the edge electrons, has not been…

This article reports the successful synthesis of single crystalline two-dimensional thin flakes of NbSe$_2$. The XRD pattern of the grown crystal ensured its crystallization in a single phase with a hexagonal structure. The EDAX endorsed…

Semimetallic tungsten ditelluride (WTe2) displays an extremely large non-saturating magnetoresistance (XMR), which is the subject of intense interest. This phenomenon is thought to arise from the combination of perfect n-p charge…

A WSe2 monolayer of 1T' phase is a large band gap quantum spin Hall insulator, supporting dissipationless charge and spin transports through the topologically protected edge states. In this work, we explore the nanoribbon forms of 1T' phase…

The outstanding transport properties expected at the edge of two-dimensional time-reversal invariant topological insulators have proven to be challenging to realize experimentally, and have so far only been demonstrated in very short…

We study numerically the edge magnetoconductance of a quantum spin Hall insulator in the presence of quenched nonmagnetic disorder. For a finite magnetic field B and disorder strength W on the order of the bulk gap E_g, the conductance…

Nontrivial band topology along with magnetism leads to different novel quantum phases. When time-reversal-symmetry is broken in three-dimensional topological insulators (TIs) by applying high enough magnetic field or proximity effect,…

We evidence the possibility for coherent electrical manipulation of the spin orientation of topologically protected edge states in a low-symmetry quantum spin Hall insulator. By using a combination of ab-initio simulations, symmetry-based…
