Two-dimensional centrosymmetrical antiferromagnets for spin photogalvanic devices

Abstract Spin-dependent photogalvanic effect (PGE) in low-dimensional magnetic systems has recently attracted intensive attention. Based on first-principle transport calculations and symmetry analyses, we propose a robust scheme to generate pure spin current by PGE in centrosymmetric materials with...
