Field-free spin-orbit torque-induced switching of perpendicular magnetization in a ferrimagnetic layer with vertical composition gradient
Zhenyi Zheng, Yue Zhang, Victor Lopez-Dominguez +15
Current-induced spin-orbit torques (SOTs) are of interest for fast and energy-efficient manipulation of magnetic order in spintronic devices. To be deterministic, however, switchin…
Modulation of field-like spin orbit torque in heavy metal / ferromagnet heterostructure
Zilu Wang, Houyi Cheng, Kewen Shi +10
Recent studies rediscovered the crucial role of field-like spin orbit torque (SOT) in nanosecond-timescale SOT dynamics. However, there is not yet an effective way to control its r…
Skyrmions in magnetic tunnel junctions
Xueying Zhang, Wenlong Cai, Xichao Zhang +10
In this work, we demonstrate that skyrmions can be nucleated in the free layer of a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions (DMI) by a spin-polarized…
Tunneling magnetoresistance enhancement by symmetrization in spin-orbit torque magnetic tunnel junction
Jiaqi Zhou, Weisheng Zhao, Kaihua Cao +3
Heavy metals with strong spin-orbit coupling (SOC) have been employed to generate spin current to control the magnetization dynamics by spin-orbit torque (SOT). Magnetic tunnel jun…
