Voltage control of interface rare-earth magnetic moments
arXiv:1709.01271 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.120.027201
Abstract
The large spin orbit interaction in rare earth atoms implies a strong coupling between their charge and spin degrees of freedom. We formulate the coupling between voltage and the local magnetic moments of rare earth atoms with partially filled 4f shell at the interface between an insulator and a metal. The rare earth-mediated torques allow power-efficient control of spintronic devices by electric field-induced ferromagnetic resonance and magnetization switching.
