Abstract:
Spin-orbit interaction is responsible for certain states of matter, like chiral spin textures, surface spin-polarized states, and electrical control of the electron spin. Accordingly, the spin-orbit driven-phenomena, such as the spin Hall effect and the current-induced spin polarization (a.k. Edelstein effect), are crucial not only due to the fundamental aspects of solid-state physics but also because of possible applications in spintronics.
I will focus on graphene-based van-der-Waals heterostructures where one can observe not only current-induced spin polarization and Hall effects but also topological phase transitions. Next, I will provide an overview of recent studies on nonlinear magnetotransport in selected 2D systems (TIs, perovskite oxides), where the spin-orbit interaction is strong and induces sizable current-induced spin polarization and nonlinear effects (e.g., bilinear magnetoresistance and bilinear planar Hall effect). Finally, I will discuss a method that we proposed recently for the determination of the effective Rashba parameter from the analysis of bilinear response in the angle-dependent magnetotransport experiments.
