Abstract
We report Abrikosov vortex nucleation in Pt / Nb / Ni 80 Fe 20 / Nb / Pt proximity-coupled structures under oblique ferromagnetic resonance that turns out to be detrimental to superconducting spin pumping. By measuring an out-of-plane field-angle θ H dependence and comparing with Pt-absent control samples, we show that as θ H increases, the degree of enhancement (suppression) of spin pumping efficiency in the superconducting state for the Pt-present (Pt-absent) sample diminishes and it reverts to the normal state value at θ H = 90 ∘ . This can be explained in terms of a substantial out-of-plane component of the resonance field for the Ni 80 Fe 20 layer (with in-plane magnetization anisotropy and high aspect ratio) that approaches the upper critical field of the Nb, turning a large fraction of the singlet superconductor volume into the normal state.
