In the last decades, non-equilibrium phenomena have been intensively explored and several theoretical methods treating them have been developed. Spintronics, electronics, mesoscopic physics, non-equilibrium statistical physics, multiferroics, optics, cold atoms, etc. have abundantly contributed to the development. Motivated by these progresses, in recent years, we have tried to find/explore new interdisciplinary topics among these fields, especially, focusing on heat- [1,2,3] or laser-driven [4,5,6] phenomena.

In the present seminar, I would like to report two of our recent results for non-equilibrium spin transport. The first topic is the spin Seebeck effect in a spin-nematic state [3]. This offers a route between spintronics and quantum magnetism. The second is the theoretical study of the laser-driven rectification of DC spin current in non-centrosymmetric magnetic insulators [5]. This study is the first proposal for the spin-current version of shift current (spin version of solar cell), and results from connecting several ideas in spintronics, optics, multiferroics, and non-equilibrium physics. I would like to explain these results focusing on their essential aspects.
