Sub-terahertz spectroscopy of magnetic resonance in BiFeO3 using a vector network analyzer

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Arnaud Magrez, Emile Jacques de Rijk, Christian Caspers, Varun Paresh Gandhi

Detection of sub-THz spin cycloid resonances (SCRs) of stoichiometric BiFeO3 (BFO) was demonstrated using a vector network analyzer. Continuous wave absorption spectroscopy is possible, thanks to heterodyning and electronic sweep control using frequency ex ...

Linear response to a heat-driven spin torque

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Haiming Yu, Francesco Antonio Vetrò, Christian Caspers, Lucas Fitoussi

The existence of a heat-driven spin torque is demonstrated using Co/Cu/Co spin valves embedded in metallic nanowires. Heat currents flowing in one direction or its opposite were obtained by heating optically one end or the other of the nanowires. The spin ...

Opto-spintronics in InP using ferromagnetic tunnel spin filters

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Murari Soundararajan, Christian Caspers, Dongyoung Yoon

We demonstrate opto-spintronics using Fe-doped Indium Phosphide (InP). The method is based on optical orientation of InP conduction electron spins which are electrically detected in planar InP/oxide/Ni tunnel spin filters. We separate the optical excitatio ...

Electrical detection of spin hyperpolarization in InP

Jean-Philippe Ansermet, Christian Caspers

The electrical detection of surface spin polarization in Indium Phosphide (InP) is demonstrated. Using a planar four-terminal architecture on top of semi-insulating Fe: InP (001) wafers, optical orientation is separated from electrical detection. Spin filt ...
