Abstract
Investigating exotic magnetic materials with spintronic techniques is effective at advancing magnetism as well as spintronics. In this work, we report unusual field-induced suppression of the spin Seebeck effect (SSE) in a quasi-one-dimensional frustrated spin-1/2 magnet LiCuVO_{4}, known to exhibit spin-nematic correlation in a wide range of external magnetic field B. The suppression takes place above |B|≳2 T in spite of the B-linear isothermal magnetization curves in the same B range. The result can be attributed to the growth of the spin-nematic correlation while increasing B. The correlation stabilizes magnon pairs carrying spin 2, thereby suppressing the interfacial spin injection of SSE by preventing the spin-1 exchange between single magnons and conduction electrons at the interface. This interpretation is supported by integrating thermodynamic measurements and theoretical analysis on the SSE.
