The large variety of 2D materials and their co-integration in van der Waals heterostructures
enable innovative device engineering. In addition, their atomically thin nature promotes the …

After the first unequivocal demonstration of spin transport in graphene [Tombros et al.,
Nature (London) 448, 571–574 (2007)], surprisingly at room temperature, it was quickly …

Magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (TBG), with rotational misalignment close to 1.1
degrees, features isolated flat electronic bands that host a rich phase diagram of correlated …

Boundaries between distinct topological phases of matter support robust, yet exotic quantum
states such as spin–momentum locked transport channels or Majorana fermions,–. The idea …

BACKGROUND Materials by design is an appealing idea that is very hard to realize in
practice. Combining the best of different ingredients in one ultimate material is a task for …

Spin–orbit coupling (SOC) describes the relativistic interaction between the spin and
momentum degrees of freedom of electrons, and is central to the rich phenomena observed …

Strong electron correlation and spin-orbit coupling (SOC) can have a profound influence on
the electronic properties of materials. We examined their combined influence on a two …

Graphene is an excellent material for long-distance spin transport but allows little spin
manipulation. Transition-metal dichalcogenides imprint their strong spin–orbit coupling into …

Two-dimensional materials (2DMs) have attracted tremendous research interest over the
last two decades. Their unique optical, electronic, thermal, and mechanical properties make …

With the profuse amount of two-dimensional (2D) materials discovered and the
improvements in their synthesis and handling, the field of 2D heterostructures has gained …
