ABSTRACT
Chirality-induced spin transport phenomena are investigated at room temperature without magnetic fields in a monoaxial chiral dichalcogenide CrNb_{3}S_{6}. We found that spin polarization occurs in these chiral bulk crystals under a charge current flowing along the principal c axis. Such phenomena are detected as an inverse spin Hall signal which is induced on the detection electrode that absorbs polarized spin from the chiral crystal. The inverse response is observed when applying the charge current into the detection electrode. The signal sign reverses in the device with the opposite chirality. Furthermore, the spin signals are found over micrometer length scales in a nonlocal configuration. Such a robust generation and protection of the spin-polarized state is discussed based on a one-dimensional model with an antisymmetric spin-orbit coupling.
