The recently observed Seebeck spin tunneling, the thermoelectric analog of spin-polarized tunneling, is described. The fundamental origin is the spin dependence of the Seebeck coefficient of a tunnel junction with at least one ferromagnetic…
The spin Seebeck effect refers to the generation of a spin voltage caused by a temperature gradient in a ferromagnet, which enables the thermal injection of spin currents from the ferromagnet into an attached nonmagnetic metal over a…
We consider spin-polarized transport in a quantum spin Hall antidot system coupled to normal leads. Due to the helical nature of the conducting edge states, the screening potential at the dot region becomes spin dependent without external…

The abilities to inject and detect spin carriers are fundamental for research on transport and manipulation of spin information. Pure electronic spin currents have been recently studied in nanoscale electronic devices using a non-local…
As a non-magnetic heavy metal is attached to a ferromagnet, a vertically flowing heat-driven spin current is converted to a transverse electric voltage, which is known as the longitudinal spin Seebeck effect (SSE). If the ferromagnet is a…
Using wave function matching approach and employing the Landauer-Buttiker formula a ferromagnetic graphene junction with a temperature gradient across the system, is studied. We calculate the thermally induced charge and spin current as…
The interplay between spin and heat currents at magnetic insulator|nonmagnetic metal interfaces has been a subject of much scrutiny because of both fundamental physics and the promise for technological applications. While ferrimagnetic and,…
We performed measurements of Py/Cu and Py/Ag lateral spin valves as function of injection current direction and magnitude. Above a 'critical' current, there is an unexpected dependence of spin injection on current direction. Positive…
An electric current from a ferromagnet into a non-magnetic material can induce a spin-dependent electron temperature. Here it is shown that this spin heat accumulation, when created by tunneling from a ferromagnet, produces a non-negligible…

Graphene is a very promising material in spintronics due to both its high electric mobility and low intrinsic spin-obit coupling. Electronic spins can be injected from a ferromagnetic material through a tunnel contact into graphene owing to…
We develop a theory for spin transport in magnetic metals that treats the contribution of magnons and electrons on equal footing. As an application we consider thermally-driven spin injection across an interface between a magnetic metal and…
