Kavli Affiliate: Nathan Lewis | Summary:Two-dimensional hexagonal and oblique lattices were investigated theoretically with the aim of observing differences in the spin expectation values between chiral and achiral systems. The spinresolved band structures were derived from the energy eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of a Hamiltonian that includes the lattice potential and the spin-orbit interaction. The spin […]
