Abstract
AbstractActive control over the generation and manipulation of pure spin current has propelled drastic transformation in new generation spintronics. Spin pumping is one of the favored mechanisms to generate pure spin current and its efficiency can be parameterized in terms of spin‐mixing conductance () and spin‐diffusion length (λ). Here, using all‐optical time‐resolved magneto‐optical Kerr magnetometry, spin pumping in a ferromagnetic Heusler compound (Co2Fe0.4Mn0.6Si (CFMS))/Pt heterostructure is investigated keeping in mind the small intrinsic damping and stable spin‐polarized band structure at the Fermi level of the CFMS and excellent spin‐sink property of Pt. The thickness‐dependent evolution of Gilbert damping is modeled using ballistic and diffusive spin transport frameworks to extract and λ. Finally, a giant value of interfacial spin transparency up to 0.87 ± 0.02 combined with small intrinsic damping of 0.0039 ± 0.0004 promote the CFMS/Pt heterostructure as a champion material for the development of advanced spin‐orbitronic devices.
