Spin-dependent diffraction at ferromagnetic/spin spiral interface
Résumé
Spin-dependent transport is investigated in ballistic regime through the interface between a ferromagnet and a spin spiral. We show that spin-dependent interferences lead to a new type of diffraction called "spin-diffraction". It is shown that this spin-diffraction leads to local spin and electrical currents along the interface. This study also shows that in highly non homogeneous magnetic configuration (non adiabatic limit), the contribution of the diffracted electrons is crucial to describe spin transport in such structures.
