We investigated the inverse spin Hall voltage generated in a 10 nm thin Pt strip deposited on the magnetic insulators Y3Fe5O12 (YIG) and NiFe2O4 (NFO) with a temperature gradient in the film plane. We observed characteristics typical of the spin Seebeck effect (SSE), although we did not observe a change of sign of the voltage at the Pt strip when the direction of the heat flow was reversed, which is believed to be the most striking feature of the transverse SSE. Therefore, we relate the observed signals to the longitudinal SSE generated by a parasitic out-of-plane temperature gradient, which can be simulated by contact tips of different material and heat conductivities and by tip heating [1]. This work [2] gives new insights into the interpretation of transverse spin Seebeck effect experiments, which are still under discussion.
