(Edited by Hiroyuki SAKAKI, M.J.A.)

Abstract: The interconversion between spin, charge, and currents is being actively studied from the viewpoints of both fundamental physics and thermoelectric applications in the field of spin caloritronics. This field is a branch of spintronics, which has developed rapidly since the discovery of the thermo-spin conversion phenomenon called the spin Seebeck effect. In spin caloritronics, various thermo-spin conversion phenomena and principles have subsequently been discovered and magneto-thermoelectric effects, thermoelectric effects unique to magnetic materials, have received renewed attention with the advances in physical understanding and thermal/ thermoelectric measurement techniques. However, the existence of various thermo-spin and magneto-thermoelectric conversion phenomena with similar names may confuse non-specialists. Thus, in this Review, the basic behaviors, spin-charge-heat current conversion symmetries, and functionalities of spin-caloritronic phenomena are summarized, which will help new entrants to learn fundamental physics, materials science, and application studies in spin caloritronics.

Profile

Ken-ichi Uchida was born in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan in 1986. He obtained his B. Eng. (2008) and M. Sc. Eng. (2009) degrees from Keio University, Yokohama, Japan, and his Ph. D. (2012) degree from Tohoku University, Sendai, Japan. He was an assistant professor (2012–2014) and an associate professor (2014–2016) at Institute for Materials Research, Tohoku University. He has been a group leader of Spin Caloritronics Group, Research Center for Magnetic and Spintronic Materials, National Institute for Materials Science in Japan (since 2016) and a cross-appointment professor at Institute for Materials Research, Tohoku University (since 2019). He has worked mainly on spintronics, spin caloritronics, and thermoelectrics. His important achievements include the discovery of the spin Seebeck effect in metals (2008) and insulators (2010), discovery of spin current generation from sound waves (2011) and surface (2015), thermal imaging of the spin Peltier effect (2016), and first direct observation of the anisotropic magneto-Peltier effect (2018) and magneto- Thomson effect (2020). He received many awards including JSPS Ikushi Prize from Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (2011), Young Scientists’ Prize, Commendation for Science and Technology from Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (2013), Gottfried Wagener Prize from German Innovation Award (2014), Nagase Prize from Frontier Salon Foundation (2014), Yamato Scientific Award from Yamato Scientific Co., Ltd. (2014), NISTEP Award from National Institute of Science and Technology Policy (2015), Funai Research Award from The Funai Foundation for Information Technology (2019), Marubun Research Encourage- ment Award from Marubun Research Promotion Foundation (2019), and JSPS Prize from Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (2020).
