Description
The possibility to manipulate the magnetism at the atomic scale in 2D materials shown promising for the next generation of data storage devices and for quantum technologies. Hydrogenated graphene has demonstrated to be a good platform for such applications where the magnetic states can be modified using a STM tip. In this talk, I will show recent first-principles calculations on graphene-Bi2Se3 heterostructures and discuss different approaches to model the graphene-TI interaction using a one-orbital tight-binding model. The solutions thus obtained may serve as simple platforms to study spin-orbit torque effects in hydrogenated graphene/TI heterostructures and open a new routes for local spin manipulation.
