Chiral materials, similarly to human hands, have distinguishable right-handed and left-handed enantiomers which may behave differently in response external stimuli. Here, we use for the first time an approach based on density functional theory (DFT)+PAOFLOW calculations quantitatively estimate so-called collinear Rashba-Edelstein effect (REE) that generates spin accumulation parallel charge current can manifest as chirality-dependent charge-to-spin conversion chiral crystals. Importantly,...
Studies of structure-property relationships in spintronics are essential for the design materials that can fill specific roles devices. For example, with low symmetry allow unconventional configurations charge-to-spin conversion, which be used to generate efficient spin-orbit torques. Here, we explore relationship between crystal and geometry Rashba-Edelstein effect (REE) causes spin accumulation response an applied electric current. Based on a analysis performed 230 crystallographic space...
Transition metal dichalcogenides are known for their intriguing spin-valley effects, which can be harnessed through proximity in van der Waals heterostructures. Their hexagonal monolayers exhibit significant Zeeman band splitting of valence bands, reaching up to several hundred meV and giving rise spin textures that yield long lifetimes. However, this effect is suppressed the bilayers due inversion symmetry. The recent discovery sliding ferroelectricity ${MX}_{2}$ ($M=\mathrm{Mo}$, W;...
Efficient generation and manipulation of spin signals in a given material without invoking external magnetism remain one the challenges spintronics. The Hall effect (SHE) Rashba-Edelstein (REE) are well-known mechanisms to electrically generate accumulation materials with strong spin-orbit coupling (SOC), but exact role strength type SOC, especially crystals low symmetry, has yet be explained. In this study, we investigate REE three different families nonmagnetic chiral materials, elemental...
