Microscopic foundation for orbitronics: orbital exchange interactions, orbital-dependent transport, and orbital switching

Hantao Zhang, Ran Cheng

Recent experiments highlighted the essential role of the orbital degrees of freedom underlying current-induced magnetic dynamics. However, a microscopic picture of how orbital angu…

Characterizing Spin-Orbit Torques by Tensorial Spin Hall Magnetoresistance

Hantao Zhang, Ran Cheng

Magnetoresistance (MR) provides a crucial tool for experimentally studying spin torques. While MR is well established in the device geometry of the spin Hall effect (SHE), as exemp…

Néel Spin-Orbit Torque in Antiferromagnetic Quantum Spin and Anomalous Hall Insulators

Junyu Tang, Hantao Zhang, Ran Cheng

Interplay between magnetic ordering and topological electrons not only enables new topological phases but also underpins electrical control of magnetism. Here we extend the Kane-Me…

Large spin-orbit torque in a-plane -FeO/Pt bilayers

Igor Lyalin, Hantao Zhang, Justin Michel +4

Realization of efficient spin-orbit torque switching of the Néel vector in insulating antiferromagnets is a challenge, often complicated by spurious effects. Quantifying the spin-o…

Voltage-Controlled Magnetoelectric Devices for Neuromorphic Diffusion Process

Yang Cheng, Qingyuan Shu, Albert Lee +13

Stochastic diffusion processes are pervasive in nature, from the seemingly erratic Brownian motion to the complex interactions of synaptically-coupled spiking neurons. Recently, dr…
