The 40th TI-FRIS Hub Meeting / 56th FRIS Hub Meeting (Hybrid event)

TI-FRIS Hub Meetings are held once a month at Tohoku University to foster researchers who understand and can utilize the importance of interdisciplinary research across disciplines and institutions.
 
Common sense and way of thinking cannot be expected among researchers in different fields. The audience is encouraged to ask questions during the presentation to discuss and deepen their understanding. Please participate actively.

 
 
・Date & Time: Every Friday of the month except August (16:00-17:00)
・Target Audience: TI-FRIS Fellows, researchers and students from TI-FRIS participating institutions

Presentation Title：「スピン」を利用した新たな電力変換 / A new route to electricity generation based on quantum spins
 
Abstract：In 1831, Michael Faraday observed electric currents when he slides a bar magnet in and out of his coil of wires. This effect of electromagnetic induction serves as a bedrock of modern technologies, such as motors and inductors. In 2009, a new kind of electricity generation was experimentally reported. Now you don’t need to move a magnet. What is "moving" here is the quantum spin nanostructure inside the magnet, which triggers a conversion of the internal spin energy of the magnet into an electric one. The two phenomena turn out to be like two sides of a coin, both being fundamental and universal physical effects. We will overview recent progresses in the study of electricity generation utilizing quantum spins.
