Spin proximity effects in 2D vdW heterostructures: Insights from DFT

Abstract: Two spin interactions are relevant for spintronics of 2D materials: spin-orbit coupling and exchange coupling. Both can be efficiently tailored by vdW engineering - straining, twisting, gating, stacking. 

In this talk, I will discuss insights from DFT investigations of specific cases of spin-orbit and magnetic heterostructures and the roles of strain and twist.
