The spin Seebeck effect (SSE) is known as the generation of 'spin voltage' in a magnet as a result of a temperature gradient. Spin voltage stands for the potential for spins, which drives a spin current. The SSE is of crucial importance in…
We develop a simple theory for the longitudinal spin Seebeck effect in n-doped InSb in an external magnetic field. We consider spin-$1/2$ electrons in the conduction band of InSb with a temperature gradient parallel to the applied magnetic…
Thermoelectricity was discovered almost two centuries ago in bismuth. The large and negative Seebeck coefficient of this semimetal remains almost flat between 300 K and 100 K. This striking feature can be understood by considering the ratio…
A thermal gradient generates an electric field in any solid hosting mobile electrons. In presence of a finite magnetic field (or Berry curvature) this electric field has a transverse component. These are known as Seebeck and Nernst…
Spin Seebeck effect (SSE) holds promise for new spintronic devices with low-energy consumption. The underlying physics, essential for a further progress, is yet to be fully clarified. This study of the time resolved longitudinal SSE in the…
The longitudinal spin Seebeck effect is measured on the ferromagnetic insulator Fe$_3$O$_4$ with the ferromagnetic metal Co$_{0.2}$Fe$_{0.6}$B$_{0.2}$ (CoFeB) as the spin detector. By using a non-magnetic spacer material between the two…
Thermoelectric effects, measured by the Seebeck coefficients, refer to the phenomena in which a temperature difference or gradient imposed across a thermoelectric material induces an electrical potential difference or gradient, and vice…
Thermally-driven spin-transfer torques have recently been reported in electrically insulating ferromagnet$|$normal-metal heterostructures. In this paper, we propose two physically distinct mechanisms for such torques. The first is a local…
Since the discovery of the giant magnetoresistance (GMR) effect the use of the intrinsic angular momentum of the electrons has opened up new spin based device concepts. The two channel model of spin-up and spin-down electrons with…
Longitudinal spin Seebeck effect has been investigated for an uniaxial antiferromagnetic insulator Cr2O3, characterized by a spin-flop transition under magnetic field along the c-axis. We have found that temperature gradient applied normal…
The influence of an asymmetric in-plane magnetic anisotropy on the thermally activated spin current is studied theoretically for two different systems; (i) the system consisting of a ferromagnetic insulator in a direct contact with a…
We investigate coupled spin and heat transport in easy-plane magnetic insulators. These materials display a continuous phase transition between normal and condensate states that is controlled by an external magnetic field. Using…
We calculate the phonon, electron and magnon temperature profiles in yttrium iron garnet/platinum bilayers by diffusive theory with appropriate boundary conditions, in particular taking into account interfacial thermal resistances. Our…
One of the most important discoveries in spintronics is the spin Seebeck effect (SSE) recently observed in both insulating and (semi-)conducting magnets. However, the very existence of the effect in transverse configuration is still a…
We study temperature evolution of spin accumulation signals obtained by the three-terminal Hanle effect measurements in a nondegenerated silicon channel with a Schottky-tunnel-barrier contact. We find the clear difference in the…
We study the polarization response to the temperature gradient in insulators, known as the thermopolarization effect. We show that this response can be understood through the free energy response function to an electric field gradient,…
We investigate the spin injection and the spin transport in paramagnetic insulators described by simple Heisenberg interactions using auxiliary particle methods. Some of these methods allow access to both paramagnetic states above magnetic…
Heat dissipation is one of the most serious problems in modern integrated electronics with the continuously decreasing devices size. Large portion of the consumed power is inevitably dissipated in the form of waste heat which not only…
We report the thermal spin injection and accumulation in crystalline CoFe/MgO tunnel contacts to n-type Si through Seebeck spin tunneling (SST). With the Joule heating (laser heating) of Si (CoFe), the thermally induced spin accumulation is…
Spin-transfer is a typical spintronics effect that allows a ferromagnetic layer to be switched by spin-injection. Most of the experimental results about spin transfer are described on the basis of the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation of the…
