Reconstruction of an effective magnon mean free path distribution from spin Seebeck measurements in thin films

2017

A thorough understanding of the mean-free-path (MFP) distribution of the energy carriers is crucial to engineer and tune the transport properties of materials. In this context, a significant body of work has investigated the phonon and electron MFP distribution, however, similar studies of the magnon MFP distribution have not been carried out so far. In this work, we used thickness-dependence measurements of the longitudinal spin Seebeck (LSSE) effect of yttrium iron garnet films to reconstruct the cumulative distribution of a SSE related effective magnon MFP. By using the experimental data reported by Guo et al. [Phys. Rev. X 6, 031012 (2016)], we adapted the phonon MFP reconstruction algo…
