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 …

The pervasiveness of information technologies is generating an impressive amount of data,
which need to be accessed very quickly. Nonvolatile memories (NVMs) are making inroads …

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 …

Building upon the success and relevance of the 2014 Magnetism Roadmap, this 2017
Magnetism Roadmap edition follows a similar general layout, even if its focus is naturally …

Spin–orbit coupling stands as a powerful tool to interconvert charge and spin currents and to
manipulate the magnetization of magnetic materials through spin-torque phenomena …

Since its discovery, graphene has been a promising material for spintronics: its low spin–
orbit coupling, negligible hyperfine interaction, and high electron mobility are obvious …

Van der Waals heterostructures display numerous unique electronic properties. Nonlocal
measurements, wherein a voltage is measured at contacts placed far away from the …

We present a detailed theoretical study of effective spin-orbit coupling (SOC) Hamiltonians
for graphene-based systems, covering global effects such as proximity to substrates and …

In recent years, predictive computational modeling has become a cornerstone for the study
of fundamental electronic, optical, and thermal properties in complex forms of condensed …
