Thermal spin transfer torque in Fe|Ag|YIG multilayers

We investigated the thermal spin transfer effect in FM|NM|YIG multilayers using the first princi- ples scattering theory. At room temperature, the spin Seebeck torque TZSE -1.0 μJ/(K-m^2) in an Ag+|Fe|Ag|YIG multilayer, which is around 40% larger than that estimated from mixing conductance. The quan...

Description
Summary:We investigated the thermal spin transfer effect in FM|NM|YIG multilayers using the first princi- ples scattering theory. At room temperature, the spin Seebeck torque TZSE -1.0 μJ/(K-m^2) in an Ag+|Fe|Ag|YIG multilayer, which is around 40% larger than that estimated from mixing conductance. The quantum effects such as interlayer exchange coupling between FM and YIG could be responsible for the enhancements. Based on the LLG equation, reverse the magnetic configurations, circularly, in a we predict that a temperature bias of -10 K can multilayer at room temperature.
