Spin torque on the surface of graphene in the presence of spin orbit splitting

Spin torque on the surface of graphene in the presence of spin orbit splitting

We study theoretically the spin transfer torque of a ferromagnetic layer coupled to (deposited onto) a graphene surface in the presence of the Rashba spin orbit coupling (RSOC). We show that the RSOC induces an effective magnetic field, which will result in the spin precession of conduction electron...
