Non-volatile magnetic random-access memories (MRAMs), such as spin-transfer torque
MRAM and next-generation spin–orbit torque MRAM, are emerging as key to enabling low …

Magnetic topological materials represent a class of compounds with properties that are
strongly influenced by the topology of their electronic wavefunctions coupled with the …

BACKGROUND The electron can be considered as a tiny magnet, with two opposite poles
defining its magnetic field associated with the spin and orbital motion. When such minuscule …

Spin-orbit coupling in inversion-asymmetric magnetic crystals and structures has emerged
as a powerful tool to generate complex magnetic textures, interconvert charge and spin …

The search for new two-dimensional monolayers with diverse electronic properties has
attracted growing interest in recent years. Here, we present an approach to construct MA2Z4 …

Quantum spin Hall (QSH) effect materials feature edge states that are topologically protected
from backscattering. However, the small band gap in materials that have been identified as …

The first-principles band theory paradigm has been a key player not only in the process of
discovering new classes of topologically interesting materials, but also for identifying salient …

We derive in the present work topological photonic states purely based on conventional
dielectric material by deforming a honeycomb lattice of cylinders into a triangular lattice of …

Magnetic devices are a leading contender for the implementation of memory and logic
technologies that are non-volatile, that can scale to high density and high speed, and that do …

Abstract In 1984, Bychkov and Rashba introduced a simple form of spin–orbit coupling to
explain the peculiarities of electron spin resonance in two-dimensional semiconductors …
