The Rashba-type SOC in systems with inversion symmetry breaking is particularly attractive for spintronics applications since it allows for flexible manipulation of spin current by external electric fields. Here, we report the discovery of a giant anisotropic Rashba-like spin splitting along three ...
We discuss the relevance of our results to (i) the 伪 and 尾 phases proposed by Wu and Zhang in the Fermi-liquid formalism and (ii) experimental observations of spin-orbit splitting in Au(111) surface states.doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.82.195131A. Alexandradinata...

Here, we report the discovery of a giant anisotropic Rashba-like spin splitting along three momentum directions (3D Rashba-like spin splitting) with a helical spin polarization around the M points in the Brillouin zone of trigonal layered PtBi2. Due to its inversion asymmetry and reduced symmetry...
We show,\nfrom spin- and angle-resolved photoemission, how this enables surface states of\n3d and 4d-based transition-metal oxides to surprisingly develop some of the\nlargest Rashba-like spin splittings that are known. Our findings open new\npossibilities to produce spin textured states in ...
(3) layer.Such SO splitting has a Rashba-like but distinct spin texture in the valence band around the maximum,where the chirality of the spin texture reverses within the upper spin-split branch,in contrast to the conventional Rashba systems where the upper branch and lower branch have ...

The band structure of a general class of buckled square lattice materials is investigated using ab initio calculations along with tight-binding modeling. We show that buckling and spin-orbit interaction give rise to a large Rashba-like splitting in the absence of an external electric field. The ...
