Spin-orbit torque and spin pumping in YIG/Pt with interfacial insertion layers

Satoru Emori, Alexei Matyushov, Hyung-Min Jeon +8

We experimentally investigate spin-orbit torque and spin pumping in Y${}_3$Fe${}_5$O${}_{12}$(YIG)/Pt bilayers with ultrathin insertion layers at the interface. An insertion layer of Cu…
