Tunable Pure Spin Supercurrents and the Demonstration of Their Gateability in a Spin-Wave Device

Recent ferromagnetic resonance experiments and theory of Pt/Nb/Ni_{8}Fe_{2} proximity-coupled structures strongly suggest that spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in Pt in conjunction with a magnetic exchange field in Ni_{8}Fe_{2} are the essential ingredients to generate a pure spin supercurrent channel in N...
