Spin Hall effects in metals

A Hoffmann - IEEE transactions on magnetics, 2013 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Spin Hall effects convert charge currents into spin currents and vice versa even in
nonmagnetic conductors due to spin orbit coupling. This enables spin Hall effects to be …

Micromagnetics and spintronics: models and numerical methods

C Abert - The European Physical Journal B, 2019 - Springer
Computational micromagnetics has become an indispensable tool for the theoretical

Unidirectional spin Hall magnetoresistance in ferromagnet/normal metal bilayers

CO Avci, K Garello, A Ghosh, M Gabureac… - Nature Physics, 2015 - nature.com
Magnetoresistive effects are usually invariant on inversion of the magnetization direction. In
non-centrosymmetric conductors, however, nonlinear resistive terms can give rise to a …

Orbital Hanle Magnetoresistance in a Transition Metal

G Sala, H Wang, W Legrand, P Gambardella - Physical Review Letters, 2023 - APS
The Hanle magnetoresistance is a telltale signature of spin precession in nonmagnetic
conductors, in which strong spin-orbit coupling generates edge spin accumulation via the …

Spin Hall magnetoresistance in metallic bilayers

J Kim, P Sheng, S Takahashi, S Mitani, M Hayashi - Physical review letters, 2016 - APS
Spin Hall magnetoresistance (SMR) is studied in metallic bilayers that consist of a heavy
metal (HM) layer and a ferromagnetic metal (FM) layer. We find a nearly tenfold increase of …
