Hello, everyone! I've been working on this spin-orbit coupling thing.Spin-orbit coupling can induce spin-polarization in non-magnetic materials, which gives rise to what is called as spin texture of electronic bands.
How do I plot the In-plane spin textures?
The distribution of spin/magnetization vectors in magnetic/non-magnetic substances give rise to different interesting structures depending upon the anisotropies and other interactions (DM interaction, exchange etc) present in the system. These spin structures are called magnetic texture. There are number of textures such as vortex, skyrmion, meron, spiral, helix etc. Skyrmion is one of the current hot topic of research. You can see such structures once you plot the magnetization vectors in the plane.
