Microscopic calculation of thermally-induced spin-transfer torques
H. Kohno, Y. Hiraoka, M. Hatami +1
Spin-transfer torques induced by temperature gradients in conducting ferromagnets are calculated microscopically for smooth magnetization textures. Temperature gradients are treate…
Electron-electron interaction induced spin thermalization in quasi-low-dimensional spin valves
Tero T. Heikkila, Moosa Hatami, Gerrit E. W. Bauer
We study the spin thermalization, i.e., the inter-spin energy relaxation mediated by electron-electron scattering in small spin valves. When one or two of the dimensions of the spi…
Thermoelectric spin diffusion in a ferromagnetic metal
Moosa Hatami, Gerrit E. W. Bauer, Saburo Takahashi +1
We present a semiclassical theory of spin-diffusion in a ferromagnetic metal subject to a temperature gradient. Spin-flip scattering can generate pure thermal spin currents by shor…
Spin heat accumulation and its relaxation in spin valves
Tero T. Heikkila, Moosa Hatami, Gerrit E. W. Bauer
We study the concept of spin heat accumulation in excited spin valves, more precisely the effective electron temperature that may become spin dependent, both in linear response and…
Thermoelectric Effects in Magnetic Nanostructures
Moosa Hatami, Gerrit E. W. Bauer, Qinfang Zhang +1
We model and evaluate the Peltier and Seebeck effects in magnetic multilayer nanostructures by a finite-element theory of thermoelectric properties. We present analytical expressio…
Thermal Spin-Transfer Torques in Magnetoelectronic Devices
Moosa Hatami, Gerrit E. W. Bauer, Qinfang Zhang +1
We predict that the magnetization direction of a ferromagnet can be reversed by the spin-transfer torque accompanying spin-polarized thermoelectric heat currents. We illustrate the…
