We report on temperature dependent measurements of the Longitudinal Spin Seebeck Effect (LSSE) in the mixed valent manganite La$_{0.7}$Ca$_{0.3}$MnO$_3$. By disentangling the contribution arising due to the Anisotropic Nernst effect, we observe that these two thermally driven phenomena vary disparately with temperature. In a narrow low temperature regime, the LSSE exhibits a $T^{0.55}$ dependence, which matches well with that predicted by the magnon-driven spin current model. Across the double exchange driven paramagnetic-ferromagnetic transition, the LSSE exponent is significantly higher than the magnetization one. These observations highlights the importance of individually ascertaining the temperature evolution of different mechanisms which contribute to the measured spin Seebeck signal.

We have theoretically explored the intrinsic spin Hall effect (SHE) in the iron-based superconductor family with a variety of materials. The study is motivated by an observation that, in addition to an appreciable spin-orbit coupling in the Fe 3d sta tes, a character of the band structure in which Dirac cones appear below the Fermi energy may play a crucial role in producing a large SHE. Our investigation does indeed predict a substantially large spin Hall conductivity in the heavily hole-doped regime such as KFe$_2$As$_2$. The magnitude of the SHE has turned out to be comparable with that for Pt despite a relatively small spin-orbit coupling, which we identify to come from a huge contribution from the gap opening induced by the spin-orbit coupling at the Dirac point, which can become close to the Fermi energy for the heavy hole doping.
Heterostructures of mixed-valence manganites are still under intense scrutiny, due to the occurrence of exotic quantum phenomena linked to electronic correlation and interfacial composition. For instance, if two anti-ferromagnetic insulators as LaMnO $_3$ and SrMnO$_3$ are grown in a (001)-oriented superlattice, a half-metallic ferromagnet may form, provided that the thickness is sufficiently small to allow tunneling across interfaces. In this article, we employ electronic structure calculations to show that all the layers of a (111)-oriented LaMnO$_3$|SrMnO$_3$ superlattice retain a half-metallic ferromagnetic character for a much larger thickness than in its (001) counterpart. This behavior is shown to be linked to the charge transfer across the interface, favored by the octahedral connectivity between the layers. This also results in a symmetry-induced quenching of the Jahn-Teller distortions, which are replaced by breathing modes. The latter are coupled to charge and spin oscillations, whose components have a pure e g character. Most interestingly, the magnetization reaches its maximum value inside the LaMnO$_3$ region and not at the interface, which is fundamentally different from what observed for the (001) orientation. The analysis of the inter-atomic exchange coupling shows that the magnetic order arises from the double-exchange mechanism, despite competing interactions inside the SrMnO$_3$ region. Finally, the van Vleck distortions and the spin oscillations are found to be crucially affected by the variation of Hunds exchange and charge doping, which allows us to speculate that our system behaves as a Hunds metal, creating an interesting connection between manganites and nickelates.
We demonstrate that delta-doping can be used to create a dimensionally confined region of metallic ferromagnetism in an antiferromagnetic (AF) manganite host, without introducing any explicit disorder due to dopants or frustration of spins. Delta-dop ed carriers are inserted into a manganite superlattice (SL) by a digital-synthesis technique. Theoretical consideration of these additional carriers show that they cause a local enhancement of ferromagnetic (F) double-exchange with respect to AF superexchange, resulting in local canting of the AF spins. This leads to a highly modulated magnetization, as measured by polarized neutron reflectometry. The spatial modulation of the canting is related to the spreading of charge from the doped layer, and establishes a fundamental length scale for charge transfer, transformation of orbital occupancy and magnetic order in these manganites. Furthermore, we confirm the existence of the canted, AF state as was predicted by de Gennes [P.-G. de Gennes, Phys. Rev. 118, 141 (1960)], but had remained elusive.
We performed temperature-dependent optical pump - THz emission measurements in Y3Fe5O12 (YIG)|Pt from 5 K to room temperature in the presence of an externally applied magnetic field. We study the temperature dependence of the spin Seebeck effect and observe a continuous increase as temperature is decreased, opposite to what is observed in electrical measurements where the spin Seebeck effect is suppressed as 0K is approached. By quantitatively analysing the different contributions we isolate the temperature dependence of the spin-mixing conductance and observe features that are correlated to the bands of magnon spectrum in YIG.

The interplay of nearly degenerate orders in quantum materials can lead to a myriad of emergent phases. A prominent case is that of the high-Tc cuprates for which the relationship between superconductivity and a short-ranged, incommensurate charge de nsity wave in the CuO2 planes involving the dx2-y2 orbitals (Cu-CDW) is a subject of great current interest. Strong modifications of the strength and coherence of this Cu-CDW have been achieved by applying large magnetic fields, uniaxial pressure, or via the interfacial coupling in cuprate/manganite multilayers. However, such modifications do not alter the dominant orbital character. Here we investigate cuprate/manganite multilayers with resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) and show that a new kind of Cu-based density wave order can be induced that has not been previously observed in the cuprates. This order has an unusually small wave vector of Q = 0.096 reciprocal lattice units (r.l.u.), a large correlation length of about 40 nm, and a predominant dz2 orbital character, instead of the typical dx2-y2 character. Its appearance is determined by the hole doping of the manganite which is a key parameter controlling the interfacial charge transfer and orbital reconstruction. We anticipate that the observation of a previously unknown type of density wave order at the YBCO interface will allow for fresh perspectives on the enigmatic relation between superconductivity and charge order (CO) in the cuprates.
