Spin Accumulation at Ferromagnet/Non-magnetic Material Interfaces
M. R. Sears, W. M. Saslow
Many proposed and realized spintronic devices involve spin injection and accumulation at an interface between a ferromagnet and a non-magnetic material. We examine the electric fie…
Current Flow in Uniform Ferromagnets: Bulk and Surface Heating Rates
Matthew R. Sears, Wayne M. Saslow
With spintronics applications in mind, we use irreversible thermodynamics to derive the rates of entropy production and heating near an interface when heat current, electric curren…
Thermal Equilibration and Thermally-Induced Spin Currents in a Thin-Film Ferromagnet on a Substrate
Matthew R. Sears, Wayne M. Saslow
Recent spin-Seebeck experiments on thin ferromagnetic films apply a temperature difference along the length and measure a (transverse) voltage difference alon…
Andreev-Lifshitz Supersolid Hydrodynamics Including the Diffusive Mode
Matthew R. Sears, Wayne M. Saslow
We have re-examined the Andreev-Lifshitz theory of supersolids. This theory implicitly neglects uniform bulk processes that change the vacancy number, and assumes an internal press…
Generation Efficiencies for Propagating Modes in a Supersolid
Matthew R. Sears, Wayne M. Saslow
Using Andreev and Lifshitz's supersolid hydrodynamics, we obtain the propagating longitudinal modes at non-zero applied pressure (necessary for solid 4He), and their genera…
Andreev-Lifshitz Hydrodynamics Applied to an Ordinary Solid under Pressure
Matthew R. Sears, Wayne M. Saslow
We have applied the Andreev-Lifshitz hydrodynamic theory of supersolids to an ordinary solid. This theory includes an internal pressure , distinct from the applied pressure $P_a…
