Abstract:

There are quite numbers of spin-dependent phenomena developed in the last several years for transition-metal ferromagnetic metals. Among them, current-driven spin torques, spin pumping, spin electromotive force, and inhomogeneous spin damping have received considerable attention. We show that these seemingly different phenomena can be understood and formulated within a single scheme. New predictions such as inhomogeneous damping tensors are explicitly made.
