Elastic spin-Hall effect in mechanical graphene
We show that spin–orbit interaction and elastic spin-Hall effect can exist in a classical mechanical system consisting of a two-dimensional honeycomb lattice of masses and springs. The band structure shows the presence of splitting at K point induced by the difference of longitudinal and transverse...
