Proximity effects at superconductor(SC)/ferromagnet(FM) interfaces provide novel functionality in superconducting spintronics. We investigate the injection of spin currents in NbN/permalloy (Py) heterostructures with and without a Pt spin sink layer. Spin currents are excited by broadband ferromagnetic resonance in the Py-layer coupled inductively to a coplanar waveguide and quantitative information on the spin current physics is obtained by measuring the complex microwave transmission as a function of temperature. Our findings, reveal the symmetry and strength of spin-to-charge current conversion in SC/FM heterostructures and provide guidance for future superconducting spintronics devices. Our results are published in Phys. Rev. Lett. 126, 087201 (2021). We acknowledge financial support by the DFG.
