Charge-to-spin conversion in epitaxial and polycrystalline Bi and Bi/Ag layers
Federica Nasr, Emir Karadža, Santos F. Alvarado +9
Bi is predicted to be an efficient generator of spin-orbit torques (SOTs), with charge-to-spin conversion efficiency comparable to those of prototypical heavy metals, such as Ta, W…

Spin-orbit torques and magnetotransport properties of -Sn and -Sn heterostructures
Federico Binda, Can Onur Avci, Santos Francisco Alvarado +3
Topological insulators have emerged as an important material class for efficient spin-charge interconversion. Most topological insulators considered to date are binary or ternary c…

Interferometric detection of spin-polarized transport in the depletion layer of a metal-GaAs Schottky barrier
G. Salis, S. F. Alvarado
It is shown that the Kerr rotation of spin-polarized electrons is modulated by the distance of the electrons from the sample surface. Time-resolved Kerr rotation of optically-excit…
