- Title
Solid-state physics: Thermal spin power without magnets.
- Authors
Heikkilä, Tero T.; Tserkovnyak, Yaroslav
- Abstract
The article discusses the study of C. M. Jaworski and colleagues on the generation of spin Seebeck effect without using magnets. It states that a non-magnetic semiconductor made out of indium antimonide (InSb) was used by Jaworski to observed spin Seebeck effect. It mentions that the strong spin polarization produced by a large magnetic field, combined with temperature gradient, generates a spin current called voltage.
