Abstract
It is reported an investigation of pure spin current injection in Pt strips deposited on yttrium iron garnet (YIG) films by means of the spin pumping (SPE) and spin Seebeck (SSE) effects. Both effects were characterized by measuring the DC voltage created along the Pt strips by means of the inverse spin Hall effect (VISHE). SPE and SSE are simultaneously activated by exciting the ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) of the YIG film at the same time that a temperature gradient is created along the sample length. While the FMR signal is little affected by the temperature gradient, the voltage measured at the Pt strip placed at the lower temperature end exhibits a very challenging behavior. The voltage excited by the FMR uniform mode increases by six times as the temperature difference (ΔT) between the two ends of the YIG slab changes from 0 to 12 K. In contrast the VISHE generated by other magnetostatic spin-wave modes decreases to zero as ΔT varies from 0 to 12 K.
