We report a large enhancement of thermally injected spin current in normal metal (NM)/antiferromagnet (AF)/yttrium iron garnet (YIG), where thin AF insulating layer NiO or CoO can enhance the from YIG to NM by up factor 10. The NM/AF/YIG, with pronounced maximum near Néel temperature layer, has been found scale linearly spin-mixing conductance at NM/YIG interface for NM=3d, 4d, and 5d metals. Calculations mixing are qualitatively consistent experimental results.

We theoretically study magnon transport in an insulating spin valve (ISV) made of antiferromagnetic insulator sandwiched between two ferromagnetic (FI) layers. In the conventional metal-based valve, electron spins propagate metallic layers, giving rise to giant magnetoresistance and transfer torque.

This Letter presents a non-local means filter based on the Pearson correlation coefficient and Butterworth high-pass filter. In method, new gray value of denoising pixel is equal to weighted sum surrounding values. We use between pixels calculate weight pixel, then optimize. Experimental results show that method effectively reduces speckle noise digital holography image details are also very rich. At same time, its performance still better when compared with methods such as BM3D.

The conventional spin-diffusion equation, based on the presence of spin-split local chemical potentials, has successfully described spin accumulation attendant to diffusive transport in spintronics. A recent experiment shows that far exceeds limit set by such spin-diffusive theory when mean free path is longer than dephasing length. By introducing momentum and dependent potential, we develop a generalized equation capable addressing systems where ballistic processes are embedded overall...
