Spin caloritronic nano-oscillator

Harvesting ohmic heat for signal processing is one of major challenges in modern electronics and spin caloritronics, but not yet well accomplished. Here the authors demonstrate a spin torque oscillator device driven by pure spin current arising from thermal gradient across an Y3Fe5O12/Pt interface.
