Based on the spin-pumping theory and first-principles calculations, the spin-mixing conductance (SMC) is theoretically studied for Pt/Permalloy (Ni$_{81}$Fe$_{19}$, Py) junctions. We evaluate the SMC for ideally clean Pt/Py junctions and examine the effects of interface randomness. We find that the SMC is generally enhanced in the presence of interface roughness as compared to the ideally clean junctions. Our estimated SMC is in good quantitative agreement with the recent experiment for Pt/Py junctions. We propose possible routes to increase the SMC in Pt/Py junctions by depositing a foreign magnetic metal layer in Pt, offering guidelines for designing the future spintronic devices.

We present measurements of interfacial Gilbert damping due to the spin pumping effect in Ni$_{81}$Fe$_{19}$/W heterostructures. Measurements were compared for heterostructures in which the crystallographic phase of W, either $alpha$(bcc)-W or $beta$( A15)-W, was enriched through deposition conditions and characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and high-resolution cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy (HR-XTEM). Single phase Ni$_{81}$Fe$_{19}$/$alpha$-W heterostructures could be realized, but heterostructures with $beta$-W were realized as mixed $alpha$-$beta$ phase. The spin mixing conductances (SMC) for W at interfaces with Ni$_{81}$Fe$_{19}$ were found to be significantly lower than those for similarly heavy metals such as Pd and Pt, but comparable to those for Ta, and independent of enrichment in the $beta$ phase.

A recent theory by Chen and Zhang [Phys. Rev. Lett. 114, 126602 (2015)] predicts strongly anisotropic damping due to interfacial spin-orbit coupling in ultrathin magnetic films. Interfacial Gilbert-type relaxation, due to the spin pumping effect, is predicted to be significantly larger for magnetization oriented parallel to compared with perpendicular to the film plane. Here, we have measured the anisotropy in the Pt/Ni$_{81}$Fe$_{19}$/Pt system via variable-frequency, swept-field ferromagnetic resonance (FMR). We find a very small anisotropy of enhanced Gilbert damping with sign opposite to the prediction from the Rashba effect at the FM/Pt interface. The results are contrary to the predicted anisotropy and suggest that a mechanism separate from Rashba spin-orbit coupling causes the rapid onset of spin-current absorption in Pt.
An experimental study of the in-plane azimuthal behaviour and frequency dependence of the ferromagnetic resonance field and the resonance linewidth as a function of BiFeO$_3$ thickness is carried out in a polycrystalline exchange-biased BiFeO$_3$/Ni$ _{81}$Fe$_{19}$ system. The magnetization decrease of the Pt/BiFeO$_3$/Ni$_{81}$Fe$_{19}$/Pt heterostructures with BiFeO$_3$ thickness deduced from static measurements has been confirmed by dynamic investigations. Ferromagnetic resonance measurements have shown lower gyromagnetic ratio in a perpendicular geometry compared with that of a parallel geometry. The monotonous decrease of gyromagnetic ratio in a perpendicular geometry as a function of the BiFeO$_3$ film thickness seems to be related to the spin-orbit interactions due to the neighbouring Pt film at its interface with Ni$_{81}$Fe$_{19}$ film. The in-plane azimuthal shape of the total linewidth of the uniform mode shows isotropic behaviour that increases with BiFeO$_3$ thickness. The study of the frequency dependence of the resonance linewidth in a broad band of 3 to 35 GHz has allowed the determination of intrinsic and extrinsic contributions to the relaxation as function of BiFeO$_3$ thickness in perpendicular geometries. In our system the magnetic relaxation is dominated by the spin-pumping mechanism due to the presence of Pt. The insertion of BiFeO$_3$ between Pt and Ni$_{81}$Fe$_{19}$ attenuates the spin-pumping damping at one interface.
We report a tunable spin mixing conductance, up to $pm 22%$, in a Y${}_{3}$Fe${}_{5}$O${}_{12}$/Platinum (YIG/Pt) bilayer.This control is achieved by applying a gate voltage with an ionic gate technique, which exhibits a gate-dependent ferromagnetic resonance line width. Furthermore, we observed a gate-dependent spin pumping and spin Hall angle in the Pt layer, which is also tunable up to $pm$ 13.6%. This work experimentally demonstrates spin current control through spin pumping and a gate voltage in a YIG/Pt bilayer, demonstrating the crucial role of the interfacial charge density for the spin transport properties in magnetic insulator/heavy metal bilayers.

Exploring low-loss two-dimensional plasmon modes is considered central for achieving light manipulation at the nanoscale and applications in plasmonic science and technology. In this context, pump-probe spectroscopy is a powerful tool for investigati ng these collective modes and the corresponding energy transfer processes. Here, I present a first-principles study on non-equilibrium Dirac plasmon in graphene, wherein damping channels under ultrafast conditions are still not fully explored. The laser-induced blueshift of plasmon energy is explained in terms of thermal increase of the electron-hole pair concentration in the intraband channel. Interestingly, while damping pathways of the equilibrium graphene plasmon are entirely ruled by scatterings with acoustic phonons, the photoinduced plasmon predominantly transfers its energy to the strongly coupled hot optical phonons, which explains the experimentally-observed tenfold increase of the plasmon linewidth. The present study paves the way for an in-depth theoretical comprehension of plasmon temporal dynamics in novel two-dimensional systems and heterostructures.
