Torque, spin and energy Hall currents in magnets with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions

ORAL

Abstract

Within a linear response theory, we study nonequilibrium magnonic torques as well as spin and energy Hall currents generated by thermal gradients in ferromagnetic and anti-ferromagnetic systems. We predict a contribution related to Berry curvature which arises in multiband systems with topologically non-trivial magnon bands. We identify symmetries that need to be broken in order to have non-vanishing nonequilibrium magnonic torques. As an example, we study kagome lattice of spins with various symmetries of Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions.
