| Popis: | The existing proposals for superfluid-like spin transport have been based on easy-plane magnets where the U(1) spin-rotational symmetry is spontaneously broken in equilibrium, and this has been limiting material choices for realizing superfluid-like spin transport to restricted class of magnets. In this work, we lift this limitation by showing that superfluid-like spin transport can also be realized based on easy-axis magnets, where the U(1) spin-rotational symmetry is intact in equilibrium but can be broken in non-equilibrium. Specifically, we find the condition to engender a non-equilibrium easy-cone state by applying a spin torque to easy-axis magnets, which dynamically induces the spontaneous breaking of the U(1) spin-rotational symmetry and thereby can support superfluid-like spin transport. By exploiting this dynamic easy-cone state, we show theoretically that superfluid-like spin transport can be achieved in easy-axis magnets under suitable conditions and confirmed the prediction by micromagnetic simulations. We envision that our work broadens material library for realizing superfluid-like spin transport, showing the potential utility of dynamic states of magnets as venue to look for spin-transport phenomena that do not occur in static magnetic backgrounds. 7 pages and 2 figures |
