Spin transport properties in a naphthyl diamine derivative film investigated by the spin pumping
Authors: Yuichiro Onishi, Yoshio Teki, Eiji Shikoh
Abstract: We report the spin transport properties in a thin film of a naphthyl diamine derivative: N,N'-Bis(naphthalen-1-yl)-N,N'-bis(phenyl)-2,2'-dimethylbenzidine (alpha-NPD). In a palladium(Pd)/alpha-NPD/Ni80Fe20 tri-layer structure sample, a pure spin current is generated in the alpha-NPD layer with the spin pumping driven by ferromagnetic resonance (FMR). The generated spin current is absorbed into the Pd layer, and converted into a charge current with the inverse spin-Hall effect (ISHE) in Pd. An electromotive force due to the ISHE in the Pd layer is observed under the FMR of the Ni80Fe20 layer, which is clear evidence for the spin transport in an alpha-NPD film. The spin diffusion length in an alpha-NPD film is estimated to be about 62 nm at room temperature, which is long enough as a spin transport material for spintronic devices.
