Spin–torque generator engineered by natural oxidation of Cu
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
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.

We consider the Higgs mode at nonzero momentum in superconductors and demonstrate that in the presence of Rashba spin-orbit coupling, it couples linearly with an external exchange field.

Variation of spin–orbit coupling and related properties in skyrmionic system Mn FexGe
We report a systematic study of the magnetic and magnetotransport properties in skyrmionic compounds Mn ${}_{1-x}$ Fe _x Ge. Helical-spin or skyrmion orders are formed in all the compositions, which allows us to study electron band-filling dependence of ...

Topological magneto-optical effects and their quantization in noncoplanar antiferromagnets
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 ...

Helical edge states and edge-state transport in strained armchair graphene nanoribbons
A helical type edge state, which is generally supported only on graphene with zigzag boundaries, is found to also appear in armchair graphene nanoribbons in the presence of intrinsic spin-orbit coupling and a suitable strain.

Strong spin-orbit interaction, helical hole states, and spin qubits in nanowires and quantum dots [PDF]
Semiconducting nanowires (NWs) and quantum dots (QDs) are promising platforms for spintronics and quantum computation. Great experimental and theoretical efforts have been made to continuously improve their performances, which is evident from the large ...

Spin-Orbit Coupling corrections for the GFN-xTB method [PDF]
Spin-orbit coupling (SOC) is crucial for correct electronic structure analysis in molecules and materials, for example in large molecular systems as in superatoms, for understanding the role of transition metals in enzymes, and when investigating the ...

The Shewanella oneidensis Fic enzyme SoFic targets the switch‐I region of EF‐Tu for AMPylation
Fic enzymes mediate diverse post‐translational modifications across all domains of life, including AMPylation. Prokaryotic EF‐Tu can be AMPylated and deAMPylated by the conserved Fic enzyme SoFic. Structural and biochemical approaches were used to characterize the effect of AMPylation on EF‐Tu, SoFic's enzymatic activities, and the enzyme‐target ...
