The high antiferromagnetic resonance frequencies represent a challenge for experimental detection, but magnetic fields can reduce these resonance frequencies. We compute the inverse spin Hall voltages resulting from dynamical spin excitations as a function of a magnetic field along the easy axis and the polarization of the driving AC magnetic field perpendicular to the easy axis. We consider the insulating antiferromagnets MnF$_2$, FeF$_2$, and NiO. Near the spin-flop transition, there is a significant enhancement of the DC spin pumping and inverse spin Hall voltage for the uniaxial antiferromagnets MnF$_2$ and FeF$_2$. In the biaxial NiO, the voltages are much weaker, and there is no spin-flop enhancement of the DC component.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-02-13T14:02:04.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "inverse spin hall voltage", "dynamical antiferromagnets", "spin pumping", "ac magnetic field perpendicular", "spin hall voltages resulting" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
