Cavity-mediated superconductor$\unicode{x2013}$ferromagnetic insulator coupling

A recent proof of concept showed that cavity photons can mediate superconducting (SC) signatures to a ferromagnetic insulator (FI) over a macroscopic distance [Phys. Rev. B, 102, 180506(R) (2020)]. In contrast with conventional proximity systems, this facilitates long-distance FI$\unicode{x2013}$SC coupling, local subjection to different drives and temperatures, and studies of their mutual interactions without proximal disruption of their orders. Here we derive a microscopic theory for these interactions, with an emphasis on the leading effect on the FI, namely, an induced anisotropy field. In an arbitrary practical example, we find an anisotropy field of $14 \unicode{x2013} 16$ $μ$T, which is expected to yield an experimentally appreciable tilt of the FI spins for low-coercivity FIs such as Bi-YIG. We discuss the implications and potential applications of such a system in the context of superconducting spintronics.

Plane and Stripe Wave Phases of a Spin-Orbit Coupled Bose-Einstein Condensate in an Optical Lattice with a Zeeman Field

A weakly interacting, spin-orbit coupled, ultracold, dilute Bose gas on a two-dimensional square lattice with an external Zeeman field is studied. We explore the plane and stripe wave phases of the system involving nonzero condensate momenta, which occur when the Zeeman field is below a critical value. Their excitation spectra are found using Bogoliubov theory and by two different routes. The validity of each method to obtain the excitation spectrum is discussed, and it is found that projection on the lowest single-particle band is an excellent approximation in the plane wave phase, while it is a poor approximation in the stripe wave phase. While the plane wave phase has a phonon minimum at its single condensate momentum, revealing a nonzero sound velocity of the excitations, the stripe wave phase has quadratic minima at its two condensate momenta showing zero sound velocity of the excitations. We discuss how the presence of more than one condensate momentum is essential for these differences between the two phases. Additionally, it is emphasized that the zero sound velocity in the stripe wave phase is a lattice effect, since continuum studies of the same phase have shown nonzero sound velocity.

Macroscale non-local transfer of superconducting signatures to a ferromagnet in a cavity

Cavity spintronics recently heralded non-local magnonic signal transfer between magnetic samples. Here we show that by including superconductors in the cavity, we can make use of these principles to bring composite superconductor--ferromagnet systems to the macroscale. We analyze how a superconductor's a.c. conductivity influences the spin dynamics of a spatially separated magnet, and we discuss the potential impact on spintronic applications.
