contents We demonstrate the formation of orbital and spin Hall effects (OHE/SHE) in the 1T phase of non-magnetic transition metal dichalcogenides. With the aid of density functional theory calculations and model Hamiltonian studies on MX$_2$ (M = Pt, Pd and X = S, Se, and Te), we show an intrinsic orbital Hall conductivity ($\sim 10^3 \hbar /e\ Ω^{-1}cm^{-1}$) , which primarily emerges due to the orbital texture around the valleys in the momentum space. The robust spin-orbit coupling in these systems induces a sizable SHE out of OHE. Furthermore, to resemble the typical experimental setups, where the magnetic overlayers produce a proximity magnetic field, we examine the effect of magnetic field on OHE and SHE and showed that the latter can be doubled in these class of compounds. With a giant OHE and tunable SHE, the 1T-TMDs are promising candidates for spin and orbital driven quantum devices such as SOT-MRAM, spin nano-oscillators, spin logic devices etc., and to carry out spin-charge conversion experiments for fundamental research.
