Graphene hosts an ultra-clean electronic system with electron-electron collisions being the dominant source of scattering above liquid nitrogen temperatures. In this regime, the motion of the electron fluid resembles the flow of classical liquids and gases with high viscosity. Here we show that such a viscous electron flow can cause the generation of a spin current perpendicular to the direction of flow. Combining the Navier-Stokes equations and the spin diffusion equation in the presence of the spin-vorticity coupling, we derive an expression for the spin accumulation emerging purely as a result of the viscous electron flow. We explore Poiseuille flow and Jeffery-Hamel flow and show that the spin Hall angle may exceed 0.1 over a wide range of temperatures and can be controlled by carrier density, temperature, and the geometry of sample boundaries. Our theory points to new functionality of graphene as a spin current source.

Collective behavior is one of the most intriguing aspects of the hydrodynamic approach to electronic transport. Here we provide a consistent, unified calculation of the dispersion relations of the hydrodynamic collective modes in graphene. Taking int o account viscous effects, we show that the hydrodynamic sound mode in graphene becomes overdamped at sufficiently large momentum scales. Extending the linearized theory beyond the hydrodynamic regime, we connect the diffusive hydrodynamic charge density fluctuations with plasmons.
We derive the system of hydrodynamic equations governing the collective motion of massless fermions in graphene. The obtained equations demonstrate the lack of Galilean- and Lorentz invariance, and contain a variety of nonlinear terms due to quasi-re lativistic nature of carriers. Using those equations, we show the possibility of soliton formation in electron plasma of gated graphene. The quasi-relativistic effects set an upper limit for soliton amplitude, which marks graphene out of conventional semiconductors. The lack of Galilean and Lorentz invariance of hydrodynamic equations is revealed in spectra of plasma waves in the presence of steady flow, which no longer obey the relations of Doppler shift. The possibility of plasma wave excitation by direct current in graphene channels is also discussed.
We propose a hydrodynamic model describing steady-state and dynamic electron and hole transport properties of graphene structures which accounts for the features of the electron and hole spectra. It is intended for electron-hole plasma in graphene ch aracterized by high rate of intercarrier scattering compared to external scattering (on phonons and impurities), i.e., for intrinsic or optically pumped (bipolar plasma), and gated graphene (virtually monopolar plasma). We demonstrate that the effect of strong interaction of electrons and holes on their transport can be treated as a viscous friction between the electron and hole components. We apply the developed model for the calculations of the graphene dc conductivity, in particular, the effect of mutual drag of electrons and holes is described. The spectra and damping of collective excitations in graphene in the bipolar and monopolar limits are found. It is shown that at high gate voltages and, hence, at high electron and low hole densities (or vice-versa), the excitations are associated with the self-consistent electric field and the hydrodynamic pressure (plasma waves). In intrinsic and optically pumped graphene, the waves constitute quasineutral perturbations of the electron and hole densities (electron-hole sound waves) with the velocity being dependent only on the fundamental graphene constants.

In nearly compensated graphene, disorder-assisted electron-phonon scattering or supercollisions are responsible for both quasiparticle recombination and energy relaxation. Within the hydrodynamic approach, these processes contribute weak decay terms to the continuity equations at local equilibrium, i.e., at the level of ideal hydrodynamics. Here we report the derivation of the decay term due to weak violation of energy conservation. Such terms have to be considered on equal footing with the well-known recombination terms due to nonconservation of the number of particles in each band. At high enough temperatures in the hydrodynamic regime supercollisions dominate both types of the interaction). We also discuss the contribution of supercollisions to the heat transfer equation (generalizing the continuity equation for the energy density in viscous hydrodynamics).
The demand for compact, high-speed and energy-saving circuitry urges higher efficiency of spintronic devices that can offer a viable alternative for the current electronics. The route towards this goal suggests implementing two-dimensional (2D) mater ials that provide large spin polarization of charge current together with the long-distance transfer of the spin information. Here, for the first time, we experimentally demonstrate a large spin polarization of the graphene conductivity ($approx 14%$) arising from a strong induced exchange interaction in proximity to a 2D layered antiferromagnetic. The strong coupling of charge and spin currents in graphene with high efficiency of spin current generation, comparable to that of metallic ferromagnets, together with the observation of spin-dependent Seebeck and anomalous Hall effects, all consistently confirm the magnetic nature of graphene. The high sensitivity of spin transport in graphene to the magnetization of the outermost layer of the adjacent interlayer antiferromagnet, also provides a tool to read out a single magnetic sub-lattice. The first time observations of the electrical and thermal generation of spin currents by magnetic graphene suggest it as the ultimate building block for ultra-thin magnetic memory and sensory devices, combining gate tunable spin-dependent conductivity, long-distance spin transport and spin-orbit coupling all in a single 2D material.
