Intrinsic spin and orbital Hall effects from orbital texture

D Go, D Jo, C Kim, HW Lee - Physical review letters, 2018 - APS
We show theoretically that both the intrinsic spin Hall effect (SHE) and orbital Hall effect
(OHE) can arise in centrosymmetric systems through momentum-space orbital texture, which …

Interface-generated spin currents

VP Amin, J Zemen, MD Stiles - Physical review letters, 2018 - APS
Transport calculations based on ab initio band structures reveal large interface-generated
spin currents at Co/Pt, Co/Cu, and Pt/Cu interfaces. These spin currents are driven by in …

Gigantic intrinsic orbital Hall effects in weakly spin-orbit coupled metals

A recent paper [D. Go, Phys. Rev. Lett. 121, 086602 (2018) PRLTAO 0031-9007
10.1103/PhysRevLett. 121.086602] proposed that the intrinsic orbital Hall effect (OHE) can …

Group-theoretical classification of multipole order: Emergent responses and candidate materials

H Watanabe, Y Yanase - Physical Review B, 2018 - APS
The multipole moment is an established concept of electrons in solids. Entanglement of spin,
orbital, and sublattice degrees of freedom is described by the multipole moment, and …

Calculation of intrinsic spin Hall conductivity by Wannier interpolation

J Qiao, J Zhou, Z Yuan, W Zhao - Physical Review B, 2018 - APS
Ab initio calculation of intrinsic spin Hall conductivity (SHC) generally requires a strict
convergence criterion and a dense k-point mesh to sample the Brillouin zone, making its …

Orbital Edelstein effect as a condensed-matter analog of solenoids

T Yoda, T Yokoyama, S Murakami - Nano letters, 2018 - ACS Publications
We theoretically study current-induced orbital magnetization in a chiral crystal. This
phenomenon is an orbital version of the Edelstein effect. We propose an analogy between …

Spin Hall effect emerging from a noncollinear magnetic lattice without spin–orbit coupling

Y Zhang, J Železný, Y Sun… - New Journal of …, 2018 - iopscience.iop.org
The spin Hall effect (SHE), which converts a charge current into a transverse spin current,
has long been believed to be a phenomenon induced by spin–orbit coupling. Here, we …

Intrinsic spin-orbit torque arising from the Berry curvature in a metallic-magnet/Cu-oxide interface
