In spin transport experiments with spin currents propagating through antiferromagnetic (AFM) material, the antiferromagnet is treated as a mainly passive spin conductor not generating nor adding any spin current to the system. The spin…

We predict that a lateral electrical current in antiferromagnets can induce non-equilibrium N\'eel order fields, i.e. fields whose sign alternates between the spin sublattices, which can trigger ultra-fast spin-axis reorientation. Based on…
