We analyze the spin-orbit coupling effects in a twisted graphene/SnTe heterostructure. and show that incompatible mutual symmetry of the twisted monolayers and a strong hybridization have a massive impact on the spin splitting in graphene close to the Dirac point, with the spin splitting values bigger than 20 meV. Strong hybridization of the Dirac cone’s right movers with the SnTe band gives rise to a large asymmetric spin splitting, whereas the ferroelectricity-induced Rashba spin-orbit coupling in graphene represents the dominant contribution to the overall Rashba field, with the effective in-plane electric field that is almost aligned with the ferroelectricity direction of the SnTe monolayer. We also predict an anisotropy of the in-plane spin relaxation rates. This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation Programme under the Programme SASPRO 2 COFUND Marie Sklodowska-Curie grant agreement No. 945478.
