This article reviews static and dynamic interfacial effects in magnetism, focusing on
interfacially driven magnetic effects and phenomena associated with spin-orbit coupling and …

We review the so-called spin Hall magnetoresistance (SMR) in bilayers of a magnetic
insulator and a metal, in which spin currents are generated in the normal metal by the spin …

Platinum (Pt) metal, being nonmagnetic and with a strong spin-orbit coupling interaction, has
been central in detecting the pure spin current and establishing most of the recent spin …

We experimentally investigate and quantitatively analyze the spin Hall magnetoresistance
effect in ferromagnetic insulator/platinum and ferromagnetic insulator/nonferromagnetic …

A phenomenological theory of chiral symmetry breaking in magnetic nanostructures is
developed considering induced, inhomogeneous chiral interactions (Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya …

Magnetic skyrmions, topologically-stabilized spin textures that emerge in magnetic systems,
have garnered considerable interest due to a variety of electromagnetic responses that are …

Strong dam** enhancement in nm-thick yttrium iron garnet (YIG) films due to Pt cap**
layers was observed. This dam** is substantially larger than the expected dam** due to …

Thin Pt films on an yttrium iron garnet (YIG= Y 3 Fe 5 O 12) show ferromagneticlike transport
properties, which may impact the functionality of Pt in spin current detection, but do not …

A scannable laser beam is used to generate local thermal gradients in metallic (Co 2 FeAl)
or insulating (Y 3 Fe 5 O 12) ferromagnetic thin films. We study the resulting local charge …

We report the first direct observation of ferromagnetic spin polarization of Au nanoparticles
with a mean diameter of 1.9 nm using x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD). Owing to …
