Transport through a band insulator with Rashba spin-orbit coupling: metal-insulator transition and spin-filtering effects [PDF]
, 2009 We calculate the current-voltage characteristic of a one-dimensional band insulator with magnetic field and Rashba spin-orbit coupling which is connected to nonmagnetic leads.

Spin-orbit coupling and electron correlation effects on phonon anharmonicity of KOs2O6
AIP Advances, 2019 Spin-orbit coupling and electron correlation effects from Os 5d electrons on phonon anharmonicity of β−pyrochlore superconductor KOs2O6 are systematically studied by first-principles frozen-phonon calculations.

Zeeman spin-orbit coupling in antiferromagnetic conductors
, 2018 This article is a brief review of Zeeman spin-orbit coupling, arising in a low-carrier commensurate N\'eel antiferromagnet subject to magnetic field. The field tends to lift the degeneracy of the electron spectrum.

Tunable spin-charge conversion through topological phase transitions in zigzag nanoribbons [PDF]
, 2016 We study spin-orbit torques and charge pumping in magnetic quasi-one dimensional zigzag nanoribbons with hexagonal lattice, in the presence of large intrinsic spin-orbit coupling. Such a system experiences topological phase transition from a trivial band

Spin–torque generator engineered by natural oxidation of Cu
Nature Communications, 2016 In thin film spintronic devices, heavy metals with strong spin-orbit coupling are required to achieve a sizeable spin Hall effect. Here, the authors demonstrate an enhancement of the spin Hall effect in Cu, a material with weak spin-orbit coupling, via ...

Origin of enhanced anomalous Hall effect in ultrathin Pt/permalloy bilayers
AIP Advances, 2016 There are two mechanisms which could enhance spin-dependent scattering in a low dimensional Pt/Ferromagnetic metal structure. One is magnetic proximity effect. The other is spin orbit coupling proximity effect which was suggested recently.

Topological magneto-optical effects and their quantization in noncoplanar antiferromagnets
Nature Communications, 2020 Magneto-optical effects in magnets are commonly attributed to the interplay between exchange splitting and spin-orbit coupling. Here, Feng et al. report a topological magneto-optical effect in non-coplanar antiferromagnets due to finite scalar spin ...
