The interplay between spin, charge, and orbital degrees of freedom has led to the development of spintronic devices like spin-torque oscillators, spin-logic devices, and spin-transfer torque magnetic random-access memories. In this development spin pumping, the process where pure spin-currents are generated from magnetisation precession, has proved to be a powerful method for probing spin physics and magnetisation dynamics. The effect originates from direct conversion of low energy quantised spin-waves in the magnet, known as magnons, into a flow of spins from the precessing magnet to adjacent normal metal leads. The spin-pumping phenomenon represents a convenient way to electrically detect magnetisation dynamics, however, precessing magnets have been limited so far to pump pure spin currents, which require a secondary spin-charge conversion element such as heavy metals with large spin Hall angle or multi-layer layouts to be detectable. Here, we report the experimental observation of charge pumping in which a precessing ferromagnet pumps a charge current, demonstrating direct conversion of magnons into high-frequency currents via the relativistic spin-orbit interaction. The generated electric current, differently from spin currents generated by spin-pumping, can be directly detected without the need of any additional spin to charge conversion mechanism and amplitude and phase information about the relativistic current-driven magnetisation dynamics. The charge-pumping phenomenon is generic and gives a deeper understanding of the recently observed spin-orbit torques, of which it is the reciprocal effect and which currently attract interest for their potential in manipulating magnetic information. Furthermore, charge pumping provides a novel link between magnetism and electricity and may find application in sourcing alternating electric currents.

We have demonstrated spin pumping from a paramagnetic state of an insulator La2NiMnO6 into a Pt film. Single-crystalline films of La2NiMnO6 which exhibit a ferromagnetic order at TC ~ 270 K were grown by pulsed laser deposition. The inverse spin Hall
voltage induced by spin-current injection has been observed in the Pt layer not only in the ferromagnetic phase of La2NiMnO6 but also in a wide temperature range above TC. The efficient spin pumping in the paramagnetic phase is ascribable to ferromagnetic correlation, not to ferromagnetic order.
An intriguing feature of spintronics is the use of pure spin-currents to manipulate magnetization, e.g., spin-currents can switch magnetization in spin-torque MRAM, a next-generation DRAM alternative. Giant spin-currents via the spin Hall effect grea
tly expand the technological opportunities. Conversely, a ferromagnet/normal metal junction emits spin-currents under microwave excitation, i.e. spin-pumping. While such spin-currents are modulated at the excitation frequency, there is also a non-linear, rectified component that is commonly detected using the corresponding inverse spin Hall effect (iSHE) dc voltage. However, the ac component should be more conducive for quantitative analysis, as it is up to two orders of magnitude larger and linear. But any device that uses the ac iSHE is also sensitive to inductive signals via Faradays Law and discrimination of the ac iSHE signal must rely on phase-sensitive measurements. We use the inductive signal as a reference for a quantitative measurement of the magnitude and phase of the ac iSHE.
Effective spin mixing conductance (ESMC) across the nonmagnetic metal (NM)/ferromagnet interface, spin Hall conductivity (SHC) and spin diffusion length (SDL) in the NM layer govern the functionality and performance of pure spin current devices with
spin pumping technique. We show that all three parameters can be tuned significantly by the spin orbit coupling (SOC) strength of the NM layer in systems consisting of ferromagnetic insulating Y3Fe5O12 layer and metallic Pd1-xPtx layer. Surprisingly, the ESMC is observed to increase significantly with x changing from 0 to 1.0. The SHC in PdPt alloys, dominated by the intrinsic term, is enhanced notably with increasing x. Meanwhile, the SDL is found to decrease when Pd atoms are replaced by heavier Pt atoms, validating the SOC induced spin flip scattering model in polyvalent PdPt alloys. The capabilities of both spin current generation and spin charge conversion are largely heightened via the SOC. These findings highlight the multifold tuning effects of the SOC in developing the new generation of spintronic devices.
Topologically protected surface modes of classical waves hold the promise to enable a variety of applications ranging from robust transport of energy to reliable information processing networks. The integer quantum Hall effect has delivered on that p
romise in the electronic realm through high-precision metrology devices. However, both the route of implementing an analogue of the quantum Hall effect as well as the quantum spin Hall effect are obstructed for acoustics by the requirement of a magnetic field, or the presence of fermionic quantum statistics, respectively. Here, we use a two-dimensional acoustic crystal with two layers to mimic spin-orbit coupling, a crucial ingredient of topological insulators. In particular, our setup allows us to free ourselves of symmetry constraints as we rely on the concept of a non-vanishing spin Chern number. We experimentally characterize the emerging boundary states which we show to be gapless and helical. Moreover, in an H-shaped device we demonstrate how the transport path can be selected by tuning the geometry, enabling the construction of complex networks.
We show that spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in InSe enables the optical transition across the principal band gap to couple with in-plane polarized light. This transition, enabled by $p_{x,y}leftrightarrow p_z$ hybridization due to intra-atomic SOC in both
In and Se, can be viewed as a transition between two dominantly $s$- and $p_z$-orbital based bands, accompanied by an electron spin-flip. Having parametrized $mathbf{kcdot p}$ theory using first principles density functional theory we estimate the absorption for $sigma^{pm}$ circularly polarized photons in the monolayer as $sim 1.5%$, which saturates to $sim 0.3%$ in thicker films ($3-5$ layers). Circularly polarized light can be used to selectively excite electrons into spin-polarized states in the conduction band, which permits optical pumping of the spin polarization of In nuclei through the hyperfine interaction.
