Dynamic spin-current generation in hybrid structures by sound wave

We have developed the theory of spin transport transverse to the interface in metal/ferromagnetic insulator hybrid structures under the spin Seebeck effect conditions. We have calculated the deviation of the conduction electrons spin temperature from equilibrium under conditions of saturation of resonance interaction between the electrons and a sound wave field. We have demonstrated that the conduction electrons spin subsystem, when excited under the above conditions, generates a spin-wave current in a nonconducting ferromagnetic of the metal/ferromagnetic insulator hybrid structure being in a nonuniform temperature field. In addition, the spin-wave current generation in the ferromagnetic has a resonance nature. We have analyzed the approximation of effective parameters, when each of the considered subsystems (conduction electrons, magnons, and phonons) is characterized by its effective temperature

Thermoelectric power of nondegenerate Kane semiconductors under the conditions of mutual electron-phonon drag in a high electric field

The thermoelectric power of nondegenerate Kane semiconductors with due regard for the electron and phonon heating, and their thermal and mutual drags is investigated. The electron spectrum is taken in the Kane two-band form. It is shown that the nonparabolicity of electron spectrum significantly influences the magnitude of the thermoelectric power and leads to a change of its sign and dependence on the heating electric field. The field dependence of the thermoelectric power is determined analytically under various drag conditions.Comment: 25 pages, RevTex formatted, 3 table
