We study an effective one-dimensional quantum model that includes friction and spin-orbit coupling (SOC), and show that the model exhibits spin polarization when both terms are finite. Most important, strong spin polarization can be observed even for moderate SOC, provided that friction is strong. Our findings might help to explain the pronounced effect of chirality on spin distribution and transport in chiral molecules. In particular, our model implies static magnetic properties of a chiral molecule, which lead to Shiba-like states when a molecule is placed on a superconductor, in accordance with recent experimental data.

Long-distance two-qubit coupling, mediated by a superconducting resonator, is a leading paradigm for performing entangling operations in a quantum computer based on spins in semiconducting materials. Here, we demonstrate a novel, controllable spin-ph
oton coupling based on a longitudinal interaction between a spin qubit and a resonator. We show that coupling a singlet-triplet qubit to a high-impedance superconducting resonator can produce the desired longitudinal coupling when the qubit is driven near the resonators frequency. We measure the energy splitting of the qubit as a function of the drive amplitude and frequency of a microwave signal applied near the resonator antinode, revealing pronounced effects close to the resonator frequency due to longitudinal coupling. By tuning the amplitude of the drive, we reach a regime with longitudinal coupling exceeding $1$ MHz. This demonstrates a new mechanism for qubit-resonator coupling, and represents a stepping stone towards producing high-fidelity two-qubit gates mediated by a superconducting resonator.
A superconductor-semiconducting nanowire-superconductor heterostructure in the presence of spin orbit coupling and magnetic field can support a supercurrent even in the absence of phase difference between the superconducting electrodes. We investigat
e this phenomenon, the anomalous Josephson effect, employing a model capable of describing many bands in the normal region. We discuss geometrical and symmetry conditions required to have finite anomalous supercurrent and in particular we show that this phenomenon is enhanced when the Fermi level is located close to a band opening in the normal region.
In this article we review recent work on van der Waals (vdW) systems in which at least one of the components has strong spin-orbit coupling. We focus on a selection of vdW heterostructures to exemplify the type of interesting electronic properties th
at can arise in these systems. We first present a general effective model to describe the low energy electronic degrees of freedom in these systems. We apply the model to study the case of (vdW) systems formed by a graphene sheet and a topological insulator. We discuss the electronic transport properties of such systems and show how they exhibit much stronger spin-dependent transport effects than isolated topological insulators. We then consider vdW systems in which the layer with strong spin-orbit coupling is a monolayer transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) and briefly discuss graphene-TMD systems. In the second part of the article we discuss the case in which the vdW system includes a superconducting layer in addition to the layer with strong spin-orbit coupling. We show in detail how these systems can be designed to realize odd-frequency superconducting pair correlations. Finally, we discuss twisted graphene-NbSe2 bilayer systems as an example in which the strength of the proximity-induced superconducting pairing in the normal layer, and its Ising character, can be tuned via the relative twist angle between the two layers forming the heterostructure.
We discuss a general framework to address spin decoherence resulting from fluctuations in a spin Hamiltonian. We performed a systematic study on spin decoherence in the compound K$_6$[V$_{15}$As$_6$O$_{42}$(D$_2$O)] $cdot$ 8D$_2$O, using high-field E
lectron Spin Resonance (ESR). By analyzing the anisotropy of resonance linewidths as a function of orientation, temperature and field, we find that the spin-orbit term is a major decoherence source. The demonstrated mechanism can alter the lifetime of any spin qubit and we discuss how to mitigate it by sample design and field orientation.
When an electron or hole is in a conduction band of a crystal, it can be very different from 2, depending upon the crystalline anisotropy and the direction of the applied magnetic induction ${bf B}$. In fact, it can even be 0! To demonstrate this qua
ntitatively, the Dirac equation is extended for a relativistic electron or hole in an orthorhombically-anisotropic conduction band with effective masses $m_j$ for $j=1,2,3$ with geometric mean $m_g=(m_1m_2m_3)^{1/3}$. The appropriate Foldy-Wouthuysen transformations are extended to evaluate the non-relativistic Hamiltonian to $O({rm m}c^2)^{-4}$, where ${rm m}c^2$ is the particles Einstein rest energy. For ${bf B}||hat{bf e}_{mu}$, the Zeeman $g_{mu}$ factor is $2{rm m}sqrt{m_{mu}}/m_g^{3/2} + O({rm m}c^2)^{-2}$. While propagating in a two-dimensional (2D) conduction band with $m_3gg m_1,m_2$, $g_{||}<<2$, consistent with recent measurements of the temperature $T$ dependence of the parallel upper critical induction $B_{c2,||}(T)$ in superconducting monolayer NbSe$_2$ and in twisted bilayer graphene. While a particle is in its conduction band of an atomically thin one-dimensional metallic chain along $hat{bf e}_{mu}$, $g<<2$ for all ${bf B}={bf abla}times{bf A}$ directions and vanishingly small for ${bf B}||hat{bf e}_{mu}$. The quantum spin Hall Hamiltonian for 2D metals with $m_1=m_2=m_{||}$ is $K[{bf E}times({bf p}-q{bf A})]_{perp}sigma_{perp}+O({rm m}c^2)^{-4}$, where ${bf E}$ and ${bf p}-q{bf A}$ are the planar electric field and gauge-invariant momentum, $q=mp|e|$ is the particles charge, $sigma_{perp}$ is the Pauli matrix normal to the layer, $K=pmmu_B/(2m_{||}c^2)$, and $mu_B$ is the Bohr magneton.
