摘要：

Recent theoretical developments on the physics of spin currents in semiconductors, metals and insulators are reviewed with the stress on the role of relativistic spin-orbit interaction. The key concept is the interplay between the electric field and spin current, which might enable the spintronics without magnetic field/magnets. We present this principle discussing spin Hall effect and multiferroic behavior as two realizations.
