摘　　要：Manipulation of spin states via purely electric means forms the research branch "all-electric spintronics".In this paper,we briefly review recent progress relating to the all-electric spintronics,including electric-field control of Rashba spin-orbit coupling,magnetic anisotropy,exchange bias,ferromagnetism,and other forms of magnetoelectric coupling.Special focus is given to surface/interface systems,including semiconductor(oxide) heterostructures,magnetic/nonmagnetic surfaces,semiconductor-metal interfaces,and other nanostructures,which can be good candidates for functional materials for spintronic.Manipulation of spin states via purely electric means forms the research branch ＂all-electric spintronics＂.
