The proximity-induced spin-orbit coupling and exchange interactions in the graphene-based heterostructures provides an effective way to manipulate with charge-spin interconversion coefficients. In the talk we focused on charge-spin interconversion in bilayer and trilayer heterostructures of 1T-TaS2 and graphene. By modulating the temperature, we can access the charge density wave phase and switch between the magnetic and non-magnetic phases of 1T-TaS2 affecting consequently the graphene electrons. Using linear response theory we showed the dependence of charge-spin interconversion coefficients on a perpendicular applied electric field. For the specific configurations of the 1T-TaS2 and graphene we observed a change in both the sign and the magnitude of the non-equilibrium spin density as a response to the perpendicular electric field. This result indicates a possibility of using electric fields as a tool to control the direction of spin density.
