Emergence of radial Rashba spin-orbit fields in twisted van der Waals heterostructures
Tobias Frank, Paulo E. Faria Junior, Klaus Zollner +1
Rashba spin-orbit coupling is a quintessential spin interaction appearing in virtually any electronic heterostructure. Its paradigmatic spin texture in the momentum space forms a t…
Excitonic valley effects in monolayer WS under high magnetic fields
Gerd Plechinger, Philipp Nagler, Ashish Arora +10
Transition-metal dichalcogenides can be easily produced as atomically thin sheets, exhibiting the possibility to optically polarize and read out the valley pseudospin of extremely…
Copper adatoms on graphene: theory of orbital and spin-orbital effects
Tobias Frank, Susanne Irmer, Martin Gmitra +2
We present a combined DFT and model Hamiltonian analysis of spin-orbit coupling in graphene induced by copper adatoms in the bridge and top positions, representing isolated atoms i…
Theory of proximity-induced exchange coupling in graphene on hBN/(Co, Ni)
Klaus Zollner, Martin Gmitra, Tobias Frank +1
We perform systematic first-principles calculations of the proximity exchange coupling, induced by cobalt (Co) and nickel (Ni) in graphene, via a few (up to three) layers of hexago…
Spin-orbit coupling in fluorinated graphene
Susanne Irmer, Tobias Frank, Sebastian Putz +3
We report on theoretical investigations of the spin-orbit coupling effects in fluorinated graphene. First-principles density functional calculations are performed for the dense and…
