自旋电流在绝缘氧化物中的传导

Conduction of spin currents through insulating oxides

Christian Hahn, Grégoire De Loubens, V. V. Naletov, J. Ben Youssef, Olivier Klein, Michel Viret

摘要:

自旋电子学是电子学的一个领域,其基础是使用电子自旋而不是其电荷。最近在纯自旋电流(即与常规电荷电流不相关的角动量转移)的操纵方面的进展为构建具有低能耗的基于自旋的器件开辟了新的机会。它还允许在自旋电子器件中集成铁磁绝缘体,作为自旋源或自旋导体,使用它们的磁激发来传播自旋信号。反铁磁绝缘体属于另一类材料,即使具有更高的群速度,也可以维持磁激发。因此,它们具有作为角动量导体的潜力,有可能制造更快的自旋器件。在另一端,自旋电子电路中也需要角动量绝缘体。本信强调了一些基本功能相关的自旋电流传导,基于测量的角动量传输在反铁磁NiO和非磁性轻元素绝缘体SiO $_2$。

英文摘要:

Spintronics is a field of electronics based on using the electron spin instead of its charge. The recent advance in the manipulation of pure spin currents, i.e. angular momentum transfer not associated to conventional charge currents, has opened new opportunities to build spin based devices with low energy consumption. It has also allowed to integrate ferromagnetic insulators in spintronic devices, either as spin sources or spin conductors using their magnetic excitations to propagate a spin signal. Antiferromagnetic insulators belong to another class of materials that can also sustain magnetic excitations, even with a higher group velocity. Hence, they have potential as angular momentum conductors, possibly making faster spin devices. At the opposite end, angular momentum insulators are also required in spintronic circuits. The present letter underlines some essential features relevant for spin current conduction, based on measurements of angular momentum transmission in antiferromagnetic NiO and in the non-magnetic light element insulator SiO$_2$.
