The Dynamic Proximity Effect in Superconductor–Ferromagnetic Insulator Hybrid Structures

This paper presents a theoretical study of the dynamics of the induced magnetization and spin current arising in a layer of an impure superconductor due to the proximity to a ferromagnetic dielectric with a uniform periodically precessing magnetization. The dynamics of the observed physical quantities is described within the semi-classical Usadel–Floquet formalism, which makes it possible to study the effect of a periodic perturbation on an inhomogeneous superconducting system. The spatial distributions and temporal evolution of the induced magnetization and the superconducting spin current inside the superconductor layer are found from the numerical solutions of the system of Usadel–Floquet equations.
