Enhancing the spin–orbit interaction in graphene, via proximity effects with topological
insulators, could create a novel 2D system that combines nontrivial spin textures with high …

The proximity-induced spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in heterostructures of twisted graphene and
topological insulators (TIs) Bi 2 Se 3 and Bi 2 Te 3 is investigated from first principles. To …

Dirac materials such as graphene and topological insulators (TIs) are known to have unique
electronic and spintronic properties. We combine graphene with TIs in van der Waals …

The weak intrinsic spin-orbit coupling in graphene can be greatly enhanced by proximity
coupling. Here, we report on the proximity-induced spin-orbit coupling in graphene …

We derive a general low-energy theory for twisted moiré heterostructures comprised of Dirac
materials. We apply our theory to heterostructures on the surface of a three-dimensional …

Spintronics offers an alternative approach to conventional charge-based information
processing by using the electron spin for next-generation non-volatile memory and logic …
