Description:
Author(s): Aaron Hurley, Awadhesh Narayan, and Stefano Sanvito We demonstrate that a quantum spin Hall current, spontaneously generated at the edge of a two-dimensional topological insulator, acts as a source of spin pumping for a magnetic impurity with uniaxial anisotropy. One can then manipulate the impurity spin direction by means of an electrical current wi... [Phys. Rev. B 87, 245410] Published Thu Jun 06, 2013
