Acoustic waves generated by the spin precession
2015
We study generation of acoustic waves by a precessing spin of a nanoparticle deposited on the surface of a solid. Our approach elucidates macroscopic dynamics of the Einstein - de Haas effect. It is based upon solution of parameter-free equations of motion mandated by the conservation of the total angular momentum: spin + mechanical. We show that the amplitude of the acoustic waves generated by the spin precession may be sufficient for detection by a tunneling electron microscope.
