Spin–orbit coupling induces a unique form of Zeeman interaction in momentum space in
materials that lack inversion symmetry: the electron's spin is locked on an effective magnetic …

Spin-orbit coupling in inversion-asymmetric magnetic crystals and structures has emerged
as a powerful tool to generate complex magnetic textures, interconvert charge and spin …

Spin Hall effects are a collection of relativistic spin-orbit coupling phenomena in which
electrical currents can generate transverse spin currents and vice versa. Despite being …

The spin–orbit interaction plays an important role in magnetism and in many quantum
materials. It is the cornerstone of the physics of many electronic phases that emerge at …

Free-space circularly polarized light (CPL) detection, requiring polarizers and wave plates,
is well established, but such a spatial degree of freedom is unfortunately absent in …

The rise of two-dimensional (2D) materials research took place following the isolation of
graphene in 2004. These new 2D materials include transition metal dichalcogenides, mono …

Spin–orbit coupling stands as a powerful tool to interconvert charge and spin currents and to
manipulate the magnetization of magnetic materials through spin-torque phenomena …

Transition-metal dichalcogenides such as WSe2 and MoS2 have electronic band structures
that are ideal for hosting many exotic spin–orbit phenomena. Here we investigate the …

Spintronics, or spin electronics, involves the study of active control and manipulation of spin
degrees of freedom in solid-state systems. This article reviews the current status of this …

The development of spintronic devices has been limited by the poor compatibility between
semiconductors and ferromagnetic sources of spin. The broken inversion symmetry of some …
