Current-induced switching of antiferromagnetic order in from first principles

S Selzer, L Salemi, A Deák, E Simon, L Szunyogh… - Physical Review B, 2022 - APS
It is well established that it is possible to switch certain antiferromagnets electrically, yet the
interplay of Néel-spin-orbit torques and thermal activation is only poorly understood …

Spin accumulation in metallic thin films induced by electronic impurity scattering

MH Wu, A Fabian, M Gradhand - Physical Review B, 2021 - APS
To explore spin accumulation, evaluating the spin galvanic and spin Hall effects, we utilize
the semiclassical Boltzmann equation based on input from the relativistic Korringa-Kohn …

Yang–Mills field strength and classical trajectories of electrons in Rashba spin–orbit-coupled systems

J Hong, H Kim, S Kim - Journal of the Korean Physical Society, 2024 - Springer
It is a long standing issue how non-Abelian entities take shape in macroscopic real space
