Widespread applications of magnetic devices require an efficient means to manipulate the local magnetization. One mechanism is the electrical spin-transfer torque associated with electron-mediated spin currents; however, this suffers from substantial energy dissipation caused by Joule heating. We experimentally demonstrated an alternative approach based on magnon currents and achieved magnon-torque–induced magnetization switching in Bi2Se3/antiferromagnetic insulator NiO/ferromagnet devices at room temperature. The magnon currents carry spin angular momentum efficiently without involving moving electrons through a 25-nanometer-thick NiO layer. The magnon torque is sufficient to control the magnetization, which is comparable with previously observed electrical spin torque ratios. This research, which is relevant to the energy-efficient control of spintronic devices, will invigorate magnon-based memory and logic devices.

The electron spin polarization in two quantum dots, which are inserted in one arm of a mesoscopic ring, is investigated by means of the non-equilibrium Keldysh Green's function technique. We find that the spin accumulations in the two dots Δni=ni↑-ni↓, where niσ is the spin-σ electron occupation number in dot i, can be efficiently tuned in terms of the applied bias voltage V, the interdot tunneling coupling strength tc and the phase induced by the Rashba spin-orbit interaction. By adjusting these parameters, Δn1 and Δn2 can be generated and manipulated either simultaneously or separately, which may have real usage in spintronics or quantum information devices. We interpret the origin of the spin accumulation in terms of the spin-dependent total effective coupling strengths between the leads and the dots.
