Super-Poissonian shot noise of squeezed-magnon mediated spin transport

arXiv:1602.07513 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.116.146601

Abstract

The magnetization of a ferromagnet (F) driven out of equilibrium injects pure spin current into an adjacent conductor (N). Such FN bilayers have become basic building blocks in a wide variety of spin based devices. We evaluate the shot noise of the spin current traversing the FN interface when F is subjected to a coherent microwave drive. We find that the noise spectrum is frequency independent up to the drive frequency, and increases linearly with frequency thereafter. The low frequency noise indicates super-Poissonian spin transfer, which results from quasi-particles with effective spin . For typical ferromagnetic thin films, is related to the dipolar interaction-mediated squeezing of F eigenmodes.
