Two Strategies to Measure Spin-Orbit-Torque Efficiency Acting on the Insulating Magnet LiAlFeO
Orion Smedley, Thow Min Jerald Cham, Daisy O'Mahoney +10
For insulating magnets, widely-used electrically-based techniques to measure spin-orbit-torque efficiency can suffer from poor signal-to-noise ratios and unwanted artifacts, while…

Gate-tunable electroresistance in a sliding ferroelectric tunnel junction
Bozo Vareskic, Finn G. Kennedy, Takashi Taniguchi +3
We fabricate and measure electrically-gated tunnel junctions in which the insulating barrier is a sliding van der Waals ferroelectric made from parallel-stacked bilayer hexagonal b…

Thermal conductivity of crystalline AlN and the influence of atomic-scale defects
Runjie Lily Xu, Miguel Munoz Rojo, S. M. Islam +8
Aluminum nitride (AlN) plays a key role in modern power electronics and deep-ultraviolet photonics, where an understanding of its thermal properties is essential. Here we measure t…
