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 …

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 …

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 …

Abstract 2D van der Waals heterostructures serve as a promising platform to exploit various
physical phenomena in a diverse range of novel spintronic device applications. Efficient spin …

We report an unconventional quantum spin Hall phase in the monolayer WTe 2, which
exhibits hitherto unknown features in other topological materials. The low symmetry of the …

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 …

We report on a theoretical study of the spin Hall Effect (SHE) and weak antilocalization
(WAL) in graphene/transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) heterostructures, computed …

Enhancing the spin–orbit interaction in graphene, via proximity effects with topological
insulators, could create a novel 2D system that combines nontrivial spin textures with high …

The proximity effect opens ways to transfer properties from one material into another and is
especially important in two-dimensional (2D) materials. In van der Waals heterostructures …

In graphene superlattices, bulk topological currents can lead to long-range charge-neutral
flow and nonlocal resistance near Dirac points. A ballistic version of these phenomena has …
