Observation of spatially resolved Rashba states on the surface of CH 3 NH 3 PbBr 3 single crystals

Hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites (HOIPs) are prime candidates for studying Rashba effects due to the heavy metal and halogen atoms in their crystal structure coupled with predicted inversion symmetry breaking. Nevertheless, observation of the Rashba effect in cubic CH 3 NH 3 PbBr 3 single crystals that possess bulk inversion symmetry is the subject of extensive debate due to the lack of conclusive experiments and theoretical explanations. In this work, we provide experimental evidence that Rashba state in cubic CH 3 NH 3 PbBr 3 single crystals at room temperature occurs exclusively on the crystal surface and depends on specific surface termination that results in local symmetry breaking. We demonstrate this using a suite of spatially resolved and depth-sensitive techniques, including circular photogalvanic effect, inverse spin Hall effect, and multiphoton microscopy, that are supported by first principle calculations. Our work suggests using surface Rashba states in these materials for spintronic applications.

Symmetry-driven persistent spin texture for the two-dimensional nonsymmorphic CdTe and ZnTe crystal structures

In this paper, two nonsymmorphic two-dimensional structures of CdTe and ZnTe are modeled, and using state-of-the-art density functional theory with the group theory of solids, their symmetry-enforced electronic properties are studied. The in-plane ferroelectricity coupled with strong spin-orbit coupling induces a unidirectional out-of-plane Rashba spin-orbit field that can host a momentum-independent uniform spin configuration known as persistent spin texture (PST) at the Brillouin zone center. PST in these structures is found to be robust against external perturbations such as strain, structural distortion, and independent of layer thickness. These unprecedented intrinsic spin transport properties hold utmost importance in spintronics, as the experimental stringent condition of equal Rashba and Dresselhaus constants [Phys. Rev. Lett. 90, 146801 (2003)] is eliminated. The calculated persistent spin helix wavelength of <~5 nm paves the way for developing next-generation nanosized nonballistic spin field-effect transistors compared with micrometer-sized GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wells. Further, these materials exhibit finite spin Hall conductivity at the band edges and hence can be used in ferromagnet-free spin Hall transistors. Although CdTe and ZnTe systems have been widely studied for photocatalysis and solar cell applications over the past few decades, their potential application in spintronic devices has not been explored. Mono/few layers of CdTe and ZnTe synthesized from (110) facets of bulk zinc-blende crystals [Nat. Commun. 3, 1057 (2012)] satisfy all symmetry operations of the nonsymmorphic space group and hence can be considered ideal materials to verify our theoretical results experimentally.

Strong Rashba-Dresselhaus Effect in Nonchiral 2D Ruddlesden-Popper Perovskites

Chirality transfer from organic chiral molecules to lead halides is theorized as the origin of the strong Rashba-Dresselhaus effect causing large circular dichroism (CD) and circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) in metal halide perovskites (MHPs). In this report a concrete empirical evidence is provided that such strong CD and CPL can occur even in nonchiral 2D Ruddlesden-Popper perovskites (RPPs) (BA) 2 (MA) n-1 Pb n I 3n+1 (where MA = CH 3 NH 3 and BA = CH 3 (CH 2 ) 3 NH 3 ). The CD and CPL responses occurring at the excitonic transition of the MHPs are strongest (≈100 mdeg and 4.8%, respectively) when a single lead halide octahedral [PbI 6 ] 4- layer is repeatedly stacked between two nonchiral molecules BA + (n = 1). However, they are rapidly quenched as n increases. It is hypothesized that strong Rashba-Dresselhaus splitting in the 2D RPPs originates the strong CD and CPL signatures. Density functional theory calculations reveal that the large interlayer distortions in the inorganic layers at the organic/inorganic interface give rise to the strong Rashba-Dresselhaus splitting. A Rashba-Dresselhaus field of ≈600 and ≈50 mT for n = 1 and 2, respectively, is estimated by magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy. The studies may have significant impact on designing 2D RPPs with large Rashba-Dresselhaus effects at room temperature for spintronic applications.

Superconductivity and Local Inversion-Symmetry Breaking

Inversion and time reversal are essential symmetries for the structure of Cooper pairs in superconductors. The loss of one or both leads to modifications to this structure and can change the properties of the superconducting phases in profound ways. Superconductivity in materials lacking inversion symmetry, or noncentrosymmetric materials, has become an important topic. These materials show unusual magnetic and magnetoelectric properties and can host topological superconductivity. Recently, crystal structures with local, but not global, inversion-symmetry breaking have attracted attention. Here, superconductivity can exhibit phenomena not naively expected in centrosymmetric materials. In this review, we first introduce the concept of locally noncentrosymmetric crystals and different material realizations. We then discuss consequences of such local symmetry breaking on the normal state electronic structure and the classification of superconducting order parameters. Finally, we review the expected and, in parts, already observed phenomenology of unconventional superconductivity and possible topological superconducting phases.

Uncovering spin-orbit coupling-independent hidden spin polarization of energy bands in antiferromagnets

Abstract Many textbook physical effects in crystals are enabled by some specific symmetries. In contrast to such ‘apparent effects’, ‘hidden effect X’ refers to the general condition where the nominal global system symmetry would disallow the effect X, whereas the symmetry of local sectors within the crystal would enable effect X. Known examples include the hidden Rashba and/or hidden Dresselhaus spin polarization that require spin-orbit coupling, but unlike their apparent counterparts are demonstrated to exist in non-magnetic systems even in inversion-symmetric crystals. Here, we discuss hidden spin polarization effect in collinear antiferromagnets without the requirement for spin-orbit coupling (SOC). Symmetry analysis suggests that antiferromagnets hosting such effect can be classified into six types depending on the global vs local symmetry. We identify which of the possible collinear antiferromagnetic compounds will harbor such hidden polarization and validate these symmetry enabling predictions with first-principles density functional calculations for several representative compounds. This will boost the theoretical and experimental efforts in finding new spin-polarized materials.

Theory of criticality for quantum ferroelectric metals

A variety of compounds, for example, doped paraelectrics and polar metals, exhibit both ferroelectricity and correlated electronic phenomena such as low-density superconductivity and anomalous transport. Characterizing such properties is tied to understanding the quantum dynamics of inversion symmetry breaking in the presence of itinerant electrons. Here, we present a comprehensive analysis of the properties of a metal near a quantum critical transition to a ferroelectric state, in both two and three dimensions. In this study, starting from a minimal model of electrons coupled to a transverse polar phonon via a Rashba-type spin-orbit interaction, we compute the dynamical response of both electrons and phonons. We find that the system can evince both Fermi and non-Fermi liquid phases, as well as enhanced pairing in both singlet and triplet channels. Furthermore, we systematically compute corrections to one-loop theory and find a tendency to quantum order-by-disorder, leading to a phase diagram that can include second-order, first-order, and finite-momentum phase transitions. Finally, we show that the entire phase diagram can be controlled via application of external strain, either compressive or volume-preserving. Our results provide a map of the dynamical and thermodynamical phase space of quantum ferroelectic metals, which can serve in characterizing existing materials and in seeking applications for quantum technologies.

Large Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction induced by chemisorbed oxygen on a ferromagnet surface

The Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) is an antisymmetric exchange interaction that stabilizes chiral spin textures. It is induced by inversion symmetry breaking in noncentrosymmetric lattices or at interfaces. Recently, interfacial DMI has been found in magnetic layers adjacent to transition metals due to the spin-orbit coupling and at interfaces with graphene due to the Rashba effect. We report direct observation of strong DMI induced by chemisorption of oxygen on a ferromagnetic layer at room temperature. The sign of this DMI and its unexpectedly large magnitude—despite the low atomic number of oxygen—are derived by examining the oxygen coverage–dependent evolution of magnetic chirality. We find that DMI at the oxygen/ferromagnet interface is comparable to those at ferromagnet/transition metal interfaces; it has enabled direct tailoring of skyrmion’s winding number at room temperature via oxygen chemisorption. This result extends the understanding of the DMI, opening up opportunities for the chemisorption-related design of spin-orbitronic devices.

Reversible Modification of Rashba States in Topological Insulators at Room Temperature by Edge Functionalization

Quantum materials with novel spin textures from strong spin-orbit coupling (SOC) are essential components for a wide array of proposed spintronic devices. Topological insulators have a necessary strong SOC that imposes a unique spin texture on topological states and Rashba states that arise on the boundary, but there is no established methodology to control the spin texture reversibly. Here, it is demonstrated that functionalizing Bi 2 Se 3 films by altering the step-edge termination directly changes the strength of SOC and thereby modifies the Rashba strength of 1D edge states. Scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy shows that these Rashba edge states arise and subsequently vanish through the Se functionalization and reduction process of the step edges. The observations are corroborated by density functional theory calculations, which show that a subtle chemical change of edge termination fundamentally alters the underlying electronic structure. Importantly, fully reversible and repeatable switching of Rashba edge states across multiple cycles at room temperature is experimentally demonstrated. The results imply Se functionalization as a practical method to control SOC and spin texture of quantum states in topological insulators.

Strong influence of nonmagnetic ligands on the momentum-dependent spin splitting in antiferromagnets

Here, recent studies show the nonrelativistic antiferromagnetic ordering could generate momentum-dependent spin splitting analogous to the Rashba effect but free from the requirement of relativistic spin-orbit coupling. Whereas the classification of such compounds can be illustrated by different spin-splitting prototypes (SSTs) from symmetry analysis and density-functional-theory calculations, the huge variation in chemical bonding and structures of these diverse compounds possibly clouds the issue of how much of the variation in spin splitting can be traced back to the symmetry-defined characteristics, rather to the underlining chemical and structural diversity. The alternative model Hamiltonian approaches do not confront the issues of chemical and structural complexity but often consider only the magnetic sublattice, dealing with the all-important effects of the nonmagnetic ligands via renormalizing the interactions between the magnetic sites. To this end, we constructed a DFT model Hamiltonian that allows us to study SSTs at constant chemistry while retaining the realistic atomic-scale structure including ligands. This is accomplished by using a single, universal magnetic skeletal lattice (Ni 2+ ions in rocksalt NiO) and designing small displacements of the nonmagnetic (oxygen) sublattice which produce, by design, the different SST magnetic symmetries. We show that (i) even similar crystal structures having very similar band structures can lead to contrasting behavior of spin splitting vs momentum, and (ii) even subtle deformations of the nonmagnetic ligand sublattice could cause a giant spin splitting in AFM-induced SST. This is a paradigm shift relative to the convention of modeling magnets without considering the nonmagnetic ligand that mediates indirect magnetic interaction (e.g., superexchange).

Rashba effects in lead-free ferroelectric semiconductor [CH 3 PH 3 ]SnBr 3

Here, first-principles density functional theory computations are used to predict Rashba effects cofunctional with ferroelectricity in a recently synthesized lead-free hybrid organic-inorganic perovskite MPSnBr 3 (MP=methylphosphonium, [CH 3 PH 3 ] + ). The ground state of the material is polar monoclinic with calculated spontaneous polarization of 3.01 µC/cm 2 . It exhibits near band edges spin-splitting of up to 3.3 meV and Rashba coefficient up to 0.62 eV Å. The spin textures have different topology in the conduction and valence band, which originates from the difference in the spin-momentum coupling strengths. They occur in two orthogonal planes of the Brillouin zone and are coupled to the direction of spontaneous polarization. These features persist at a finite temperature of 293 K. At 333 K, that is above monoclinic to orthorhombic phase transition, spontaneous polarization is reduced to 0.15 µC/cm 2 , while the maximum spin splitting and Rashba coefficient reduce slightly to the value of 2.9 meV and 0.41 eV Å, respectively. The spin textures remain coupled with the polarization direction. We investigate the dependence of the aforementioned properties on the choice of computational methodology to extend the first-principles predictions to include finite temperature effects. We find that the predictions are sensitive to the methodology. Our study reveals the potential of MPSnBr 3 for low-temperature applications in spintronics and quantum computing.

Driving ultrafast spin and energy modulation in quantum well states via photo-induced electric fields

Abstract The future of modern optoelectronics and spintronic devices relies on our ability to control the spin and charge degrees of freedom at ultrafast timescales. Rashba spin-split quantum well states, 2D states that develop at the surface of strong spin-orbit coupling materials, are ideal given the tunability of their energy and spin states. So far, however, most studies have only demonstrated such control in a static way. In this study, we demonstrate control of the spin and energy degrees of freedom of surface quantum well states on Bi 2 Se 3 at picosecond timescales. By means of a focused laser pulse, we modulate the band-bending, producing picosecond time-varying electric fields at the material’s surface, thereby reversibly modulating the quantum well spectrum and Rashba effect. Moreover, we uncover a dynamic quasi-Fermi level, dependent on the Lifshitz transition of the second quantum well band bottom. These results open a pathway for light-driven spintronic devices with ultrafast switching of electronic phases, and offer the interesting prospect to extend this ultrafast photo-gating technique to a broader host of 2D materials.

Spin orbit torque in ferromagnet/topological-quantum-material heterostructures

The main objective of this proposal was to investigate the spin-orbital driven phenomena in topological insulator (TI)/ferromagnet (FM) or transition metal (TM) heterostructures. In particularly, we tried to utilize the spin-momentum locking properties on the surface of TIs to achieve ideal spin-orbit torques (SOTs). In practice, we found that the surface properties have been greatly modified, resulting in much more complicated magneto-transport behaviors than what is expected in SOT-driven magnetotransport. Through systematic and extended investigations, we start to unravel that the nonlinear magnetotransport properties, which was, in the past, mainly attributed to SOT-driven phenomena, can be used to infer the modification of the electronic band structures of TIs and spin textures in FMs which are closely related with charge-spin interconversion phenomena. Regarding the band structures In TIs, we find under electrostatic perturbations imposed by deposition of nonmagnetic TMs, the quantum well states formed on the surface of TIs develop substantial Rashba spin-splitting, which is detected as a bilinear magnetoresistance (BMR). Under magnetic perturbations, the nonlinear planar Hall effect (NPHE) in the topological surface states is greatly enhanced, possibly reflecting the modified surface band structure due to time-reversal symmetry breaking. In a double HM/FM heterostructure where the magnetic anisotropy can be robustly tuned, we observed second-harmonic Hall voltage responses corresponding to domain wall structures with fixed chirality, stabilized by interfacial Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction (DMI). In addition, in the linear transport regime, we utilized inverse-SHE-induced anomalous Hall effect in Pt to probe the exchange bias on the surface of a doped magnetic insulator Tm 3 Fe 5 O 12 .

Weak magnetic field-dependent photoluminescence properties of lead bromide perovskites

The strong spin–orbit coupling (SOC) in lead halide perovskites, when inversion symmetry is lifted, has provided opportunities for investigating the Rashba effect in these systems. Moreover, the strong orbital moment, which, in turn, impacts the spin-pair in singlet and triplet electronic states, plays a significant role in enhancing the optoelectronic properties in the presence of external magnetic fields in lead halide perovskites. Here, we investigate the effect of weak magnetic fields (<1 T) on the photoluminescence (PL) properties of CsPbBr 3 nanocrystals with and without Ruddlesden–Popper (RP) faults and single crystals of CH 3 NH 3 PbBr 3 . Along with an enhancement in the PL intensity as a function of an external magnetic field, which is observed in both lead bromide perovskites, the PL emission red-shifts in CsPbBr 3 nanocrystals. Density-functional theory calculations of the electronic band-edge in CsPbBr 3 show almost no change in the energy gap as a function of the external magnetic field. The experimental results, thus, suggest the role of mixing of the triplet and singlet excitonic states under weak magnetic fields. This is further deduced from an enhancement in PL lifetimes as a function of the field in CsPbBr 3 ⁠. In CH 3 NH 3 PbBr 3⁠ , an increase in PL intensity is observed under weak magnetic fields; however, no changes in the peak energy or PL lifetimes are observed. The internal magnetic fields due to SOC are characterized for all three samples and found to be the highest for CsPbBr 3 nanocrystals with RP faults.

Prediction of giant and ideal Rashba-type splitting in ordered alloy monolayers grown on a polar surface

Abstract A large and ideal Rashba-type spin-orbit splitting is desired for the applications of materials in spintronic devices and the detection of Majorana fermions in solids. Here, we propose an approach to achieve giant and ideal spin-orbit splittings through a combination of ordered surface alloying and interface engineering, that is, growing alloy monolayers on an insulating polar surface. We illustrate this unique strategy by means of first-principle calculations of buckled hexagonal monolayers of SbBi and PbBi supported on Al2O3(0001). Both systems display ideal Rashba-type states with giant spin-orbit splittings, characterized with energy offsets over 600 meV and momentum offsets over 0.3 Å−1, respectively. Our study thus points to an effective way of tuning spin-orbit splitting in low-dimensional materials to draw immediate experimental interest.

Synthetic Tuning of Exciton–Phonon Coupling in Janus WS 2(1-x) Se 2x Monolayers Revealed by Resonant Raman Excitation Spectroscopy for Optoelectronic Applications

Janus monolayers, such as WSSe, have broken out-of-plane symmetry and an intrinsic dipole moment, impacting exciton transport, lifetime, and phonon interactions while imbuing piezoelectric, photocatalytic, and Rashba spin-splitting properties to transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs). The new properties of this atomically thin material can be used for optoelectronic device applications. As TMDs are converted into Janus monolayers, e.g., top selenization of WS2 to WSSe, the bandgap and structure smoothly evolve, impacting not only the formation of excitons but also their complex interactions with different phonon modes. Resonant Raman excitation profiles (REPs) are uniquely well-suited to reveal both excitonic transitions and exciton–phonon coupling. Here, the resonant REPs of $A^{'}_{1}$ WS 2 and A 1 WSSe modes are measured to understand the strength of their coupling with the A, B, and C excitonic bands of a WS2 monolayer throughout its stepwise transformation into Janus WSSe by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) of energetic selenium species. In situ Raman spectroscopy during deposition is used to controllably prepare stable intermediate Janus structures, WS 2(1-x) Se 2x (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.5), for ex situ measurement of their resonant REPs. As x increases, REPs reveal not only pronounced excitonic bands that gradually shift toward lower photon energies but also strong, mode-selective exciton–phonon coupling. First-principles resonant Raman simulations independently predict this spectral behavior and are shown capable of matching the spectrally broadened, experimentally observed REP profiles in this model system, indicating their strong predictive capability for future experiments. The combination of controlled synthesis, REP characterization, and predictive theory employed here demonstrates a powerful pathway to understand and ultimately tune exciton–phonon interactions for future quantum optical devices.

Prototypes of Nonrelativistic Spin Splitting and Polarization in Symmetry Broken Antiferromagnets

Antiferromagnets that break both space-time reversal and translation-spin-rotation symmetries were recently predicted [L.-D. Yuan, Z. Wang, J.-W. Luo, E. I. Rashba, and A. Zunger, Phys. Rev. B 102, 014422 (2020)] to possess splitting between the otherwise spin-degenerate energy bands even without the relativistic spin-orbit coupling (SOC). Here, we point out that such nonrelativistic spin splitting (NRSS)—in particular, “spin splitting type 4” (SST-4) symmetry-broken antiferromagnets—can be divided into subgroups having distinct patterns of spin splitting and spin textures, depending on additional auxiliary symmetries of spin interconversion and polarity. These SST-4 subgroups include the 𝛼-type (no spin-interconverting symmetry) having spin splitting at the Brillouin zone center, as well as the 𝛽 subgroup in which a rotation symmetry is applied and determines the alternating spin texture and the 𝛾 subgroup having exclusively reflection spin-interconverting symmetry. Unlike ferrimagnets, the 𝛼-type compounds are shown to have tiny net magnetization at finite temperature and thus avoid the adverse effect of the stray field. The 𝛼 and 𝛽 subgroups can be either polar or nonpolar, whereas the 𝛾 subgroup is polar only, providing a basis for possible switching by external fields. The combination of NRSS-enabling and auxiliary symmetries is used here as a filter for identifying previously synthesized compounds as specific prototypes. Their characteristic splitting and spin polarization are calculated by density functional theory to the benefit of potential future experimental testing. Interesting results are as follows: (i) SOC-independent NRSS can exceed the magnitude of the SOC-induced Rashba and Dresselhaus spin splitting in semiconductors. (ii) Examples of predicted 𝛼-type insulating compounds include BiCrO 3 (nonpolar) and Mn 2 ⁢ScSbO 6 (polar), the latter having spin splitting of 158 meV and 160 meV in the valence and conduction bands, respectively. (iii) The 𝛽-type (Cu 2 ⁢Y 2 ⁢O 5 and FeF 2 ) and 𝛾-type compounds (Mn 4 ⁢Nb 2 ⁢O 9 and FeScO 3 ) are distinguished both by their auxiliary symmetries and polarity. The spin textures of 𝛾-type compounds are mirror reflected with spin degeneracy of the wave vectors on that mirror. These observations will likely broaden the experimental playing field of NRSS physics significantly.

Spin-orbit–coupled exciton-polariton condensates in lead halide perovskites

Spin-orbit coupling (SOC) is responsible for a range of spintronic and topological processes in condensed matter. Here, we show photonic analogs of SOCs in exciton-polaritons and their condensates in microcavities composed of birefringent lead halide perovskite single crystals. The presence of crystalline anisotropy coupled with splitting in the optical cavity of the transverse electric and transverse magnetic modes gives rise to a non-Abelian gauge field, which can be described by the Rashba-Dresselhaus Hamiltonian near the degenerate points of the two polarization modes. With increasing density, the exciton-polaritons with pseudospin textures undergo phase transitions to competing condensates with orthogonal polarizations. Unlike their pure photonic counterparts, these exciton-polaritons and condensates inherit nonlinearity from their excitonic components and may serve as quantum simulators of many-body SOC processes.

Giant interfacial spin Hall angle from Rashba-Edelstein effect revealed by the spin Hall Hanle process

The Rashba-Edelstein effect (REE), which generates interfacial spin polarization and subsequent spin current, is a compelling spin-charge conversion mechanism for spintronic applications, since it’s not limited by the elemental spin-orbit couplings. In this work we demonstrate REE at Pt/ferroelectric interfaces by showing a positive correlation between polarization and effective spin Hall angle in the recently elucidated spin Hall Hanle effects (SHHE), in which a Larmor precession of spin polarization in a diffusion process from the interface manifest as magnetoresistance and Hall effect. We show that REE leads to a large enhancement of the effective spin Hall angle of ferroelectric interface Pt/h-LuFeO 3 compared with that of Pt/Al 2 O 3 , without obvious differences in the spin relaxation time. Modeling using SHHEs involving REE as an additional source of interfacial polarization suggests that REE can lead to an interfacial spin Hall angle (0.4 ± 0.1) in Pt/h-LuFeO 3 that is one order of magnitude larger than the bulk value of Pt. Our results demonstrate that a ferroelectric interface can produce large spin-charge conversion and that SHHEs are a sensitive tool for characterizing interfacial spin-transport properties.
