Spin-current probe for phase transition in an insulator
Whilst neutron scattering is a powerful tool for studying spin fluctuations in materials, its availability is limited to large-scale user facilities. Here, the authors demonstrate how the pumping of pure spin currents can be used as a desktop probe to detect an antiferromagnetic transition.
