Spin injection dependent metamagnetic transition

Abstract

We define the metamagnetic phase transition of itinerant electrons controlled by the spin injection mechanism. The current flow between a ferromagnetic metal and a metamagnetic metal produces the non-equilibrium shift of chemical potential for spin up and spin down electrons that acts as an effective magnetic field driving the metamagnetic transition.
