Spin–orbit proximity effect in graphene on metallic substrates: decoration versus intercalation with metal adatoms

The so-called spin–orbit proximity effect experimentally realized in graphene (G) on several different heavy metal surfaces opens a new perspective to engineer the spin–orbit coupling for new generation spintronics devices. Here, via large-scale density functional theory calculations performed for t...
