Quantum Group U_q(sl(2)) Symmetry and Explicit Evaluation of the One-Point Functions of the Integrable Spin-1 XXZ Chain

We show some symmetry relations among the correlation functions of the integrable higher-spin XXX and XXZ spin chains, where we explicitly evaluate the multiple integrals representing the one-point functions in the spin-1 case. We review the multiple-integral representations of correlation functions for the integrable higher-spin XXZ chains derived in a region of the massless regime including the anti-ferromagnetic point. Here we make use of the gauge transformations between the symmetric and asymmetric R-matrices, which correspond to the principal and homogeneous gradings, respectively, and we send the inhomogeneous parameters to the set of complete 2s-strings. We also give a numerical support for the analytical expression of the one-point functions in the spin-1 case

Theory of spin accumulation and spin transfer torque in a magnetic domain wall

We study spin accumulation and spin transfer torque in a domain wall by solving the Boltzmann equation with a diffusion approximation. We obtained the analytical expressions of spin accumulation and spin transfer torque. Both the adiabatic and the non-adiabatic components of the spin transfer torque oscillate with the thickness of the domain wall. We show that the oscillation plays a dominant role in the non-adiabatic torque when the domain wall thickness is less than the spin-flip length, which is defined by the product of the Fermi velocity and the spin-flip scattering time

Magnetic structure of domain walls confined in a nano-oxide layer

In the recent years, a spin-valve was developed with a current-confined-path structure consisting of a non-oxide-layer (NOL). We analyze magnetic structures of the current-confinedpath in the nano-oxide layer sandwiched between ferromagnetic electrodes and clarify the dependency of the magnetic structure on the shape and size of the current-confined-path. Our results of stiffness energy density and thermal stability shows that we should fabricate a CPP spin-valve with narrow current-confinedpaths with large aspect ratio and strong constriction in order to enhance the MR ratio.Comment: 3 pages, 3 figures, proceedings paper of Intermag 200
