摘要:

Spintronics aims to use the spin degrees of freedom for future information technologies. A key challenge for spintronics is the efficient generation of spin currents from charge currents. Recently, emergent 2D quantum materials are very attractive for spintronics since they provide new mechanisms of spin currents generation.

In this talk, I will present the spin and charge conversion in the quantum materials with non-collinear spin textures in both real and momentum spaces. The first part of my talk will discuss the spin and charge conversion in IrMn3 with a non-collinear spin structure in its crystalline lattice. The second part of my talk will discuss the spin to charge conversion in quantum materials with spin-momentum locking properties. These two materials are the spin-momentum locked surface states of topological Kondo insulator (SmB6) and the Rashba-split 2DEG at the complex oxides (SrTiO3 and LaAlO3) interface. Furthermore, the exchange coupling between the spins in the topological surface states and the magnetization in a ferromagnetic insulator will be discussed.
