In systems with a persistent spin texture, spin polarization of states is unidirectional and independent of momentum, which reduces spin dissipation. This feature makes persistent spin textures attractive for spintronics, and here, Kilic and coauthors demonstrate that, with the exception of the trivial space group, P1, persistent spin textures are universally present in all nonmagnetic solids lacking inversion symmetry.
