We have theoretically explored the intrinsic spin Hall effect (SHE) in the iron-based superconductor family with a variety of materials. The study is motivated by an observation that, in addition to an appreciable spin-orbit coupling in the Fe 3d states, a character of the band structure in which Dirac cones appear below the Fermi energy may play a crucial role in producing a large SHE. Our investigation does indeed predict a substantially large spin Hall conductivity in the heavily hole-doped regime such as KFe$_2$As$_2$. The magnitude of the SHE has turned out to be comparable with that for Pt despite a relatively small spin-orbit coupling, which we identify to come from a huge contribution from the gap opening induced by the spin-orbit coupling at the Dirac point, which can become close to the Fermi energy for the heavy hole doping.

We report the observation of a quantum anomalous Hall effect in twisted bilayer graphene showing Hall resistance quantized to within .1% of the von Klitzing constant $h/e^2$ at zero magnetic field.The effect is driven by intrinsic strong correlations
, which polarize the electron system into a single spin and valley resolved moire miniband with Chern number $C=1$. In contrast to extrinsic, magnetically doped systems, the measured transport energy gap $Delta/k_Bapprox 27$~K is larger than the Curie temperature for magnetic ordering $T_Capprox 9$~K, and Hall quantization persists to temperatures of several Kelvin. Remarkably, we find that electrical currents as small as 1~nA can be used to controllably switch the magnetic order between states of opposite polarization, forming an electrically rewritable magnetic memory.
Recent theoretical studies have found quantum spin liquid states with spinon Fermi surfaces upon the application of a magnetic field on a gapped state with topological order. We investigate the thermal Hall conductivity across this transition, descri
bing how the quantized thermal Hall conductivity of the gapped state changes to an unquantized thermal Hall conductivity in the gapless spinon Fermi surface state. We consider two cases, both of potential experimental interest: the state with non-Abelian Ising topological order on the honeycomb lattice, and the state with Abelian chiral spin liquid topological order on the triangular lattice.
The anomalous Hall effect (AHE), a Hall signal occurring without an external magnetic field, is one of the most significant phenomena. However, understanding the AHE mechanism has been challenging and largely restricted to ferromagnetic metals. Here,
we investigate the recently discovered AHE in the chiral antiferromagnet Mn3Sn by measuring a thermal analog of the AHE, known as an anomalous thermal Hall effect (ATHE). The amplitude of the ATHE scales with the anomalous Hall conductivity of Mn3Sn over a wide temperature range, demonstrating that the AHE of Mn3Sn arises from a dissipationless intrinsic mechanism associated with the Berry curvature. Moreover, we find that the dissipationless AHE is significantly stabilized by shifting the Fermi level toward the magnetic Weyl points. Thus, in Mn3Sn, the Berry curvature emerging from the proposed magnetic Weyl fermion state is a key factor for the observed AHE and ATHE.
We fabricate van der Waals heterostructure devices using few unit cell thick Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+delta}$ for magnetotransport measurements. The superconducting transition temperature and carrier density in atomically thin samples can be maintai
ned to close to that of the bulk samples. As in the bulk sample, the sign of the Hall conductivity is found to be opposite to the normal state near the transition temperature but with a drastic enlargement of the region of Hall sign reversal in the temperature-magnetic field phase diagram as the thickness of samples decreases. Quantitative analysis of the Hall sign reversal based on the excess charge density in the vortex core and superconducting fluctuations suggests a renormalized superconducting gap in atomically thin samples at the 2-dimensional limit.
Electron transport coupled with magnetism has attracted attention over the years as exemplified in anomalous Hall effect due to a Berry phase in momentum space. Another type of unconventional Hall effect -- topological Hall effect, originating from t
he real-space Berry phase, has recently become of great importance in the context of magnetic skyrmions. We have observed topological Hall effect in bilayers consisting of ferromagnetic SrRuO$_3$ and paramagnetic SrIrO$_3$ over a wide region of both temperature and magnetic field. The topological term rapidly decreases with the thickness of SrRuO$_3$, ending up with the complete disappearance at 7 unit cells of SrRuO$_3$. Combined with model calculation, we concluded that the topological Hall effect is driven by interface Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction, which is caused by both the broken inversion symmetry and the strong spin-orbit coupling of SrIrO$_3$. Such interaction is expected to realize the N{e}el-type magnetic skyrmion, of which size is estimated to be $sim$10 nm from the magnitude of topological Hall resistivity. The results established that the high-quality oxide interface enables us to tune the chirality of the system; this can be a step towards the future topological electronics.
