Abstract

Spin caloritronics[1], an emerging branch of spintronics, studying the addition of thermal effects to the electrical and magnetic properties of nanostructures, has recently seen a rapid development. It has been predicted by Hatami et al. [2] that a heat current can exert a spin torque on the magnetization in a nanostructure, analogous to the well-known spin-transfer torque induced by an electrical current. Spin transfer torque is promising in applications in magnetic random access memory, known as STT-MRAM.[3]
