The electronic structure of non-magnetic low-dimensional materials can acquire a spin
structure due to the breaking of the inversion symmetry at the surface or interface. This so …

The Rashba effect is an interaction between the spin and the momentum of electrons
induced by the spin-orbit coupling in surface or interface states. We measured the inverse …

Antimonene, a new semiconductor with fundamental bandgap and desirable stability, has
been experimentally realized recently. However, epitaxial growth of wafer‐scale single …

In order to explain the anisotropic Rashba-Bychkov effect observed in several metallic-
surface-state systems, we use k· p perturbation theory with a simple group-theoretical …

The Rashba-Edelstein effect stems from the interaction between the electron's spin and its
momentum induced by spin-orbit interaction at an interface or a surface. It was shown that …

The synthesis of antimonene, which is a promising group-V 2D material for both
fundamental studies and technological applications, remains highly challenging. Thus far, it …

Spin–orbit (SO) splitting in graphene with adsorbed Au atoms is investigated by using a first-
principles method. Considerable (∼ 200meV) Rashba-type SO splitting can be achieved in …

Charge-to-spin conversion induced by the Rashba-Edelstein effect was directly observed for
the first time in samples with no magnetic layer. A spin-polarized positron beam was used to …

We have studied by angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy the ordered X Cu 2 surface
alloys formed by X= Sb and Bi on a Cu (111) substrate. We found clear analogies with the …

The Bi/Ag (111), Pb/Ag (111), and Sb/Ag (111) surface alloys exhibit a two-dimensional
band structure with a strongly enhanced Rashba-type spin splitting, which is in part …
