Reexamination of the Elliott-Yafet spin-relaxation mechanism
Alexander Baral, Svenja Vollmar, Steffen Kaltenborn +1
We analyze spin-dependent carrier dynamics due to incoherent electron-phonon scattering, which is commonly referred to as Elliott-Yafet (EY) spin-relaxation mechanism. For this mec…
Spin-orbit coupling effects on spin-dependent inelastic electronic lifetimes in ferromagnets
Steffen Kaltenborn, Hans Christian Schneider
For the 3d ferromagnets iron, cobalt and nickel we compute the spin-dependent inelastic electronic lifetimes due to carrier-carrier Coulomb interaction including spin-orbit couplin…
Spin Dependent Lifetimes and Spin-orbit Hybridization Points in Heusler Compounds
Steffen Kaltenborn, Hans Christian Schneider
We present an ab initio calculation of the k and spin-resolved electronic lifetimes in the half-metallic Heusler compounds Co(2)MnSi and Co(2)FeSi. We determine the spin-flip and s…
Plasmon dispersions in simple metals and Heusler compounds
Steffen Kaltenborn, Hans Christian Schneider
We present a comprehensive study of plasmon dispersions in simple metals and Heusler compounds based on an accurate ab-initio evaluation of the momentum and frequency dependent die…
Wave-diffusion theory of spin transport in metals after ultrashort-pulse excitation
Steffen Kaltenborn, Yao-Hui Zhu, Hans Christian Schneider
Spin and charge-current dynamics after ultrafast spin-polarized excitation in a normal metal are studied theoretically using a wave-diffusion theory. It is shown analytically how t…
Optical detection of spin transport in non-magnetic metals
F. Fohr, Y. Fukuma, S. Kaltenborn +7
We determine the dynamic magnetization induced in non-magnetic metal wedges composed of silver, copper and platinum by means of Brillouin light scattering (BLS) microscopy. The mag…
