Microscopic derivation of the microstretch theory for carbon nanotubes
Naoki Nishimura, Mamoru Matsuo, Takeo Kato
Twisted carbon nanotubes support phonons involving not only torsion, naturally associated with microrotation, but also radial breathing, which requires a scalar stretch degree of f…
Gyromagnetic Quantum Friction in Rayleigh Vorticity Baths
Mamoru Matsuo, Ryotaro Sano, Ai Yamakage +2
We identify an intrinsic zero-temperature relaxation channel for near-surface spins gyromagnetically coupled to Rayleigh-wave vorticity. This surface-mode contribution requires no…
Spin Peltier effect in graphene
Xin Theng Lee, Xin Hu, Yuya Ominato +3
In this work, we theoretically investigate the spin-Peltier effect in a heterostructure composed of graphene and a ferromagnetic insulator (FI). Using a microscopic formalism based…
Spin Seebeck effect in magnetic junctions with a compensated ferrimagnet
Xin Theng Lee, Takahiro Misawa, Mamoru Matsuo +1
Compensated ferrimagnets enable ferromagnet-like spin transport without net magnetization. We study the spin Seebeck effect in a compensated ferrimagnet/normal-metal junction using…
Generalized continuum theory of phonon angular momentum in crystals
Mamoru Matsuo, Naoki Nishimura, Ai Yamakage +1
We formulate a generalized continuum theory of phonon angular momentum in crystals by introducing a local SO(3) material frame in addition to the macroscopic displacement field. Th…
Ferromagnetic resonance modulation in topological materials with bulk--boundary coexistence
Shun Muto, Yuya Ominato, Takeo Kato +2
We extend ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) modulation theory to describe systems in which bulk and boundary states of topological materials coexist, with both appearing at the same en…
