SEEBECK EFFECT IN GENERALIZED MAGNETO-THERMO VISCOELASTIC SPHERICAL REGION

Rayleigh Waves in a Homogeneous Magneto-Thermo Voigt-Type Viscoelastic Half-Space under Initial Surface Stresses

This paper deals with the propagation of magneto-thermo Rayleigh waves in a homogeneous viscoelastic half-space under initial stress. It has been observed that velocity of Rayleigh waves depends on viscosity, magnetic field, temperature and initial stress of the half-space. The frequency equation for Rayleigh waves under the effect of magnetic field, stress and temperature for both viscoelastic...

Tunnel magneto-Seebeck effect: Improving the effect size Spintronics and spincaloritronics

On/off switching of bit readout in bias-enhanced tunnel magneto-Seebeck effect

Thermoelectric effects in magnetic tunnel junctions are promising to serve as the basis for logic devices or memories in a "green" information technology. However, up to now the readout contrast achieved with Seebeck effects was magnitudes smaller compared to the well-established tunnel magnetoresistance effect. Here, we resolve this problem by demonstrating that the tunnel magneto-Seebeck effe...

Effective wave numbers for thermo-viscoelastic media containing random configurations of spherical scatterers.

The dispersion relation is derived for the coherent waves in fluid or elastic media supporting viscous and thermal effects and containing randomly distributed spherical scatterers. The formula obtained is the generalization of Lloyd and Berry's [Proc. Phys. Soc. London 91, 678-688 (1967)], the latter being limited to fluid host media, and it is the three-dimensional counterpart of that derived ...

Time-resolved measurement of the tunnel magneto-Seebeck effect in a single magnetic tunnel junction.

Recently, several groups have reported spin-dependent thermoelectric effects in magnetic tunnel junctions. In this paper, we present a setup for time-resolved measurements of thermovoltages and thermocurrents of a single micro- to nanometer-scaled tunnel junction. An electrically modulated diode laser is used to create a temperature gradient across the tunnel junction layer stack. This laser mo...
