• Abstract: We investigate the generation and control of both charge and spin currents via nonreciprocal dissipative mechanisms in a two-dimensional spinful fermionic atom quantum system with broken inversion and time-reversal symmetries. Within the Gorini-Kossakowski-Sudarshan-Lindblad master equation formalism and using an approach based on the time-dependent generalized Gibbs ensemble, we identify in the weak dissipative coupling regime the minimal set of nonreciprocal jump operators required to induce charge and spin currents and to control both their direction and magnitude. We find that in the presence of finite tunneling, Rashba coupling and magnetic field, the combine application of two jump operators nonreciprocally coupling each spin species to a different spatial direction of motion is sufficient to generate both types of current. Furthermore, by tuning the degree of nonreciprocity of the jump operators we modify the dominant transport mechanism from spin to charge. Finally, we checked that this nonreciprocal current generation mechanism is robust to the application of dephasing noise as even in the presence of this additional dissipative process the steady-state occupation distributions for the quasiparticle modes of the Hamiltonian remains non-trivial, an essential requirement to obtain non-zero currents.

  We report the existence of a sizeable quantum tunnelling splitting between the two lowest electronic spin levels of mononuclear Ni complexes. The level anti-crossing, or magnetic clock transition, associated with this gap has been directly monitored by heat capacity experiments. The comparison of these results with those obtained for a Co derivative, for which tunnelling is forbidden by symmetry, shows that the clock transition leads to an effective suppression of intermolecular spin-spin interactions.
