STM probe on the surface electronic states of spin-orbit coupled materials
Thesis advisor: Vidya Madhavan === Spin-orbit coupling (SOC) is the interaction of an electron's intrinsic angular momentum (spin) with its orbital momentum. The strength of this interaction is proportional to Z<super>4</super> where Z is the atomic number, so generally it is strong...
