Symmetry, spin-orbit interactions, and spin anisotropies.
The origins of anisotropy in the effective spin Hamiltonian, describing the ground manifold of Hubbard models with spin-orbit interactions, are critically discussed. For tetragonal symmetry, we show exactly that spin anisotropy can arise only if one includes both spin-orbit and Coulomb exchange interactions. For lower symmetries, additional anisotropies arise from terms which were hitherto negl...
متن کاملSpin–orbit interactions of light
NATURE PHOTONICS | VOL 9 | DECEMBER 2015 | www.nature.com/naturephotonics Light consists of electromagnetic waves that oscillate in time and propagate in space. Scalar waves are described by their intensity and phase distributions. These are the spatial (orbital) degrees of freedom common to all types of waves, both classical and quantum. In particular, a localized intensity distribution determ...
متن کاملSpin-orbit-mediated spin relaxation in ballistic graphene materials
Most of the work on understanding spin relaxation in graphene for spintronic applications relies on the assumption that spin polarization is lost due to scattering and dephasing processes. Here, we present results of a recent theoretical study of spin dynamics of supported graphene in the ballistic regime [1]. This can be relevant in high-quality devices where electron scattering no longer domi...
متن کاملWeak Localization and Antilocalization in Topological Materials with Impurity Spin-Orbit Interactions
Topological materials have attracted considerable experimental and theoretical attention. They exhibit strong spin-orbit coupling both in the band structure (intrinsic) and in the impurity potentials (extrinsic), although the latter is often neglected. In this work, we discuss weak localization and antilocalization of massless Dirac fermions in topological insulators and massive Dirac fermions ...
متن کاملNew spin-orbit interactions and isotope shifts
We propose a method to improve spin-orbit potentials of the Skyrme interaction in N > Z nuclei. New spin-orbit parameters for Skyrme interactions SIII, SkM∗ and SGII are shown to yield better agreement with empirical spin-orbit splittings than the original ones, not only in 16O but also in 208Pb. The isotope shifts in Pb nuclei and excitation energies of collective Gamow-Teller states in 48Sc, ...
