Pure spin current injection into a superconductive Nb was demonstrated experimentally by employing a nonlocal spin absorption technique in a multiterminal lateral structure. From the reduction in spin signals, we found the absorption efficiency remained almost unchanged even after superconducting transition. The Nb/Cu interface properties were also complementarily examined by using a Nb/Cu/Nb junction incorporated in the same device, revealing superconductivity below the transition temperature. These experimental results support that the pure spin current can be absorbed into a superconductive Nb wire with almost the same efficiency as in a normal state.
