Abstract

We propose mechanisms for the spin Hall effect in metallic systems arising from the coupling between conduction electrons and local magnetic moments that are dynamically fluctuating. Both a side-jump-type mechanism and a skew-scattering-type mechanism are considered. In either case, dynamical spin fluctuation gives rise to a nontrivial temperature dependence in the spin Hall conductivity. This leads to the enhancement in the spin Hall conductivity at nonzero temperatures near the ferromagnetic instability. The proposed mechanisms could be observed in 4d or 5d metallic compounds.
