报告摘要： 

In metals with disorder, the electron transport is described to be diffusive.  On the other hand, in those with electron-electron interaction being the dominant source of scattering, the motion of electrons resembles the flow of classical fluids with shear viscosity, namely, the hydrodynamic fluids. The recent progress of nano-technology has made it possible to extend the study on hydrodynamic electron fluids.  In such fluids, the angular momentum of the fluid vorticity and electron spins couple each other due to the angular momentum conservation, i.e., the spin-vorticity coupling. Combining the Novier-Stokes and the spin diffusion equations, we examine a variety of spintronic phenomena in the electron fluids, and present that metals with nano-structure provide unique spintronic devices due to the local hydrodynamic nature. The hydrodynamic phenomena of electron fluids open a door to "Hydrodynamic spintronics"
