Magnon Spin Current Modulation through Site-Specific Doping in a Compensated Iron Garnet
Abstract
We report on the impact of manganese doping at the iron sites in Gadolinium Iron Garnet (GdIG, Gd3Fe5O12), employing temperature-dependent spin Seebeck effect and ferromagnetic resonance measurements. Our findings reveal a clear shift in the magnetic compensation temperature (Tcomp) in Mn-doped GdIG, with minimal changes observed in the magnetic and damping properties. Notably, the spin Seebeck signal strength was enhanced significantly with the Mn doping. This enhancement is attributed to an increased spin mixing conductance and modifications in the magnon spectra that strengthen exchange interactions, highlighting the material's potential for room-temperature spintronic applications.
