We theoretically study spin-transfer torque (STT) in a graphene system with spin-orbit coupling (SOC). We consider a graphene-based junction where the spin-orbit coupled region is sandwiched between two ferromagnetic (F) segments. The magnetization in each ferromagnetic segment can possess arbitrary orientations. Our results show that the presence of SOC results in anisotropically modified STT, magnetoresistance, and charge conductance as a function of relative magnetization misalignment in the F regions. We have found that within the Klein regime, where particles hit the interfaces perpendicularly, the spin-polarized Dirac fermions transmit perfectly through the boundaries of an F-F junction (i.e., with zero reflection), regardless of the relative magnetization misalignment and exert zero STT. In the presence of SOC, however, due to band structure modification, a nonzero STT reappears. Our findings can be exploited for experimentally examining proximity-induced SOC into a graphene system

The mutual interaction between the different eigenmodes of a spin-torque oscillator can lead to a large variety of physical mechanisms from mode hopping to multi-mode generation, that usually reduce their performances as radio-frequency devices. To t
ackle this issue for the future applications, we investigate the properties of a model spin-torque oscillator that is composed of two coupled vortices with one vortex in each of the two magnetic layers of the oscillator. In such double-vortex system, the remarkable properties of energy transfer between the coupled modes, one being excited by spin transfer torque while the second one being damped, result into an alteration of the damping parameters. As a consequence, the oscillator nonlinear behavior is concomitantly drastically impacted. This efficient coupling mechanism, driven mainly by the dynamic dipolar field generated by the spin transfer torque induced motion of the vortices, gives rise to an unexpected dynamical regime of self-resonance excitation. These results show that mode coupling can be leveraged for controlling the synchronization process as well as the frequency tunability of spin-torque oscillators.
We study the effect of anisotropy of the Rashba coupling on the extrinsic spin Hall effect due to spin-orbit active adatoms on graphene. In addition to the intrinsic spin-orbit coupling, a generalized anisotropic Rashba coupling arising from the brea
kdown of both mirror and hexagonal symmetries of pristine graphene is considered. We find that Rashba anisotropy can strongly modify the dependence of the spin Hall angle on carrier concentration. Our model provides a simple and general description of the skew scattering mechanism due to the spin-orbit coupling that is induced by proximity to large adatom clusters.
Electron spins in a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) can be manipulated by spin-orbit (SO) fields originating from either Rashba or Dresselhaus interactions with independent isotropic characteristics. Together, though, they produce anisotropic SO
fields with consequences on quantum transport through spin interference. Here we study the transport properties of modelled mesoscopic rings subject to Rashba and Dresselhaus [001] SO couplings in the presence of an additional in-plane Zeeman field acting as a probe. By means of 1D and 2D quantum transport simulations we show that this setting presents anisotropies in the quantum resistance as a function of the Zeeman field direction. Moreover, the anisotropic resistance can be tuned by the Rashba strength up to the point to invert its response to the Zeeman field. We also find that a topological transition in the field texture that is associated with a geometric phase switching is imprinted in the anisotropy pattern. We conclude that resistance anisotropy measurements can reveal signatures of SO textures and geometric phases in spin carriers.
We theoretically examine the spin-transfer torque in the presence of spin-orbit interaction (SOI) at impurities in a ferromagnetic metal on the basis of linear response theory. We obtained, in addition to the usual spin-transfer torque, a new contrib
utioin $sim {bm j}_{rm SH}^{phantom{dagger}} cdot abla {bm n}$ in the first order in SOI, where ${bm j}_{rm SH}^{phantom{dagger}}$ is the spin Hall current driven by an external electric field. This is a reaction to inverse spin Hall effect driven by spin motive force in a ferromagnet.
We report the theoretical investigation of noise spectrum of spin current and spin transfer torque for non-colinear spin polarized transport in a spin-valve device which consists of normal scattering region connected by two ferromagnetic electrodes.
Our theory was developed using non-equilibrium Greens function method and general non-linear $S^sigma-V$ and $S^tau-V$ relations were derived as a function of angle $theta$ between magnetization of two leads. We have applied our theory to a quantum dot system with a resonant level coupled with two ferromagnetic electrodes. It was found that for the MNM system, the auto-correlation of spin current is enough to characterize the fluctuation of spin current. For a system with three ferromagnetic layers, however, both auto-correlation and cross-correlation of spin current are needed to characterize the noise spectrum of spin current. Furthermore, the spin transfer torque and the torque noise were studied for the MNM system. For a quantum dot with a resonant level, the derivative of spin torque with respect to bias voltage is proportional to $sintheta$ when the system is far away from the resonance. When the system is near the resonance, the spin transfer torque becomes non-sinusoidal function of $theta$. The derivative of noise spectrum of spin transfer torque with respect to the bias voltage $N_tau$ behaves differently when the system is near or far away from the resonance. Specifically, the differential shot noise of spin transfer torque $N_tau$ is a concave function of $theta$ near the resonance while it becomes convex function of $theta$ far away from resonance. For certain bias voltages, the period $N_tau(theta)$ becomes $pi$ instead of $2pi$. For small $theta$, it was found that the differential shot noise of spin transfer torque is very sensitive to the bias voltage and the other system parameters.
