X-ray detection of ultrashort spin current pulses in synthetic antiferromagnets

C. Stamm, C. Murer, M. S. Wörnle +8

We explore the ultrafast generation of spin currents in magnetic multilayer samples by applying fs laser pulses to one layer and measuring the magnetic response in the other layer…

X-ray spectroscopy of current-induced spin-orbit torques and spin accumulation in Pt/3d transition metal bilayers

C. Stamm, C. Murer, Y. Acremann +10

An electric current flowing in Pt, a material with strong spin-orbit coupling, leads to spins accumulating at the interfaces by virtue of the spin Hall effect and interfacial charg…

Magnetic properties and domain structure of ultrathin yttrium iron garnet/Pt bilayers

Johannes Mendil, Morgan Trassin, Qingqing Bu +10

We report on the structure, magnetization, magnetic anisotropy, and domain morphology of ultrathin yttrium iron garnet (YIG)/Pt films with thickness ranging from 3 to 90 nm. We fin…

Time- and spatially-resolved magnetization dynamics driven by spin-orbit torques

Manuel Baumgartner, Kevin Garello, Johannes Mendil +11

Current-induced spin-orbit torques (SOTs) represent one of the most effective ways to manipulate the magnetization in spintronic devices. The orthogonal torque-magnetization geomet…

Magneto-Optical Detection of the Spin Hall Effect in Pt and W Thin Films

Christian Stamm, Christoph Murer, Marco Berritta +4

Here we report the measurement of the interfacial spin accumulation induced by the spin Hall effect in Pt and W thin films using magneto-optical Kerr microscopy. We show that the K…
