title = {{R}ashba effect and chiral magnetism: some insights from
density functional theory},

abstract = {Both, the Rashba effect and the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya
interaction (DMI) rely on inversion symmetry breaking and
spin-orbit coupling (SOC) effects. While the qualitative
behavior of both is easily described on a model level,
quantitative insights in strength and sign are not so easy
to obtain. Density functional theory (DFT) offers an
effective tool to study these effects on an ab initio level.
E.g. it was found that oxygen coverage changes both, the
sign of the Rashba constant on a metal surface [1], and that
of the DMI in a magnetic thin film [2]. We shortly discuss
the interplay of magnetism and the Rashba effect and
questions about the size and sign of the Rashba constant.
These findings will be connected to recent models on
so-called Rashba- and SOC-mediated DMI. DFT calculations of
simple trilayer systems based on a Co/Pt interface show that
the DMI can not only vary by a factor of 2−3, but also
change sign depending on the inclusion of a third element
[3]. We acknowledge discussions and collaborations with H.
