AbstractAbstract
[en] During the past 15 years a new field has emerged, which combines superconductivity and spintronics, with the goal to pave a way for new types of devices for applications combining the virtues of both, namely quantum coherence and interference on one side, and spin-selectivity and spin magnetism on the other. The building block of this new ''superspintronics'' are spin-triplet Cooper pairs, which are generated at the interface between a conventional superconducting and a ferromagnetic material. Non-collinear magnetic inhomogeneity mixes triplet pairs among each other, thus creating long-ranged equal-spin Cooper pairs in the ferromagnet, and non-coplanar inhomogeneity introduces geometric phases giving rise to unusual current phase relations. We discuss recent experiments on superconducting spin-valve structures reporting a controllable transfer of magnetism via equal-spin Cooper pairs. We present theoretical models for for such an effect and discuss its implications for applications.
