Geometric spin-orbit coupling and chirality-induced spin selectivity
Atsuo Shitade, Emi Minamitani
We report a new type of spin-orbit coupling (SOC) called geometric SOC. Starting from the relativistic theory in curved space, we derive an effective nonrelativistic Hamiltonian in…
Phonon Angular Momentum Induced by Temperature Gradient
Masato Hamada, Emi Minamitani, Motoaki Hirayama +1
Phonon modes in crystals can have angular momenta in general. It nevertheless cancels in equilibrium when the time-reversal symmetry is preserved. In this paper we show that when a…
Electronic and magnetic influences of a stacking fault in cobalt nanoscale islands on the Ag(111) surface
Keiji Doi, Emi Minamitani, Shunji Yamamoto +4
Utilizing spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy, we found coexistence of perpendicularly and in-plane magnetized cobalt nanoscale islands on the Ag(111) sur…
