Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We succeed to manipulate the spin transmission of an antiferromagnetic insulator by external magnetic field which rotates the Neel vector. A new phenomenon "spin colossal magnetoresistance" is established in this study. This work also lays the foundation for the development of insulator-based spin current circuit. In addition, the magnetic field angle dependence of the SMR in a heavy metal/antiferromagnetic insulator bilayer is calculated analytically.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
我々は、反強磁性絶縁体に新しい効果、巨大スピン磁気抵抗を発見した。 これは全絶縁体スピン流回路への実質的な進歩であり、これは動作中のエネルギーコストがはるかに低く、それ故にグリーン社会に不可欠な装置である。 スピン流制御のメカニズムも我々の研究でよく理解されており、それはさらなるデバイス開発の基礎を築くものである。
