Think-tank on the role of spin orbit coupling (SOC) in low dimensions and routes towards applications (26 June – 02 July, 2016 in the Greek island of Spetses). The program will focus on SOC-induced effects in the following systems:  Rashba interfaces, surface or interface of topological insulators, interface between oxides, graphene with enhanced SOC and other 2D materials, magnetic ultra-thin films with interface-induced chiral spin interactions, skyrmions and chiral domain walls.
