Spin pumping in a composite high overtone bulk acoustic wave resonator

详细

A new way of generating a pure spin current using a magnetoelectric composite high-overtone bulk acoustic-wave resonator (HBAR) based on a layered Al–ZnO–Al–Gd₃Ga₅O₁₂–Y₃Fe₅O₁₂–Pt structure is proposed. It is established that the efficiency of generating the rf magnetic field driving the spin current by this method exceeds that of sources which use surface acoustic waves for the excitation of magnetic dynamics and is not inferior to the efficiency of usual electromagnetic ways of exciting a pure spin current that employ microwave cavities.
