Spin current, spin accumulation and spin Hall effect.
Nonlocal spin transport in nanostructured devices with ferromagnetic injector (F1) and detector (F2) electrodes connected to a normal conductor (N) is studied. We reveal how the spin transport depends on interface resistance, electrode resistance, spin polarization and spin diffusion length, and obtain the conditions for efficient spin injection, spin accumulation and spin current in the device...
متن کاملInverse quantum spin Hall effect generated by spin pumping from precessing magnetization into a graphene-based two-dimensional topological insulator
We present a multiterminal nanostructure for electrical probing of the quantum spin Hall effect QSHE in two-dimensional 2D topological insulators TIs . The device consists of a ferromagnetic FM island with precessing magnetization that pumps in the absence of any bias voltage pure spin current symmetrically into the left and right adjacent 2D TIs modeled as graphene nanoribbons with the intrins...
متن کاملSpin Hall Current and Spin-transfer Torque in Ferromagnetic Metal
We theoretically examine the spin-transfer torque in the presence of spin-orbit interaction (SOI) at impurities in a ferromagnetic metal on the basis of linear response theory. We obtained, in addition to the usual spin-transfer torque, a new contributioin ∼ jSH ·∇n in the first order in SOI, where jSH is the spin Hall current driven by an external electric field. This is a reaction to inverse ...
متن کاملOptically engineering the topological properties of a spin Hall insulator.
Time-periodic perturbations can be used to engineer topological properties of matter by altering the Floquet band structure. This is demonstrated for the helical edge state of a spin Hall insulator in the presence of monochromatic circularly polarized light. The inherent spin structure of the edge state is influenced by the Zeeman coupling and not by the orbital effect. The photocurrent (and th...
متن کاملSuppression of the persistent spin Hall current by defect scattering
We study the linear response spin Hall conductivity of a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in the presence of the Rashba spin-orbit interaction in the diffusive transport regime. When defect scattering is modeled by isotropic short-range potential scatterers the spin Hall conductivity vanishes due to the vertex correction. A nonvanishing spin Hall effect may be recovered for dominantly forwar...
