Nonlocal charge transport mediated by spin diffusion in the spin Hall effect regime

A nonlocal electric response in the spin Hall regime, resulting from spin diffusion mediating charge conduction, is predicted. The spin-mediated transport stands out due to its long-range character, and can give dominant contribution to nonlocal resistance. The characteristic range of nonlocality, s...
