Thickness-Dependent Spintronic Terahertz Emission in MBE-Grown PtTe: From Semiconductor to Type-II Dirac Semimetal

Rahul Sharma, Sylvain Massabeau, Armando Pezo +13

Spintronic terahertz (THz) emitters have established themselves as among the most practical broadband THz sources available, yet their performance remains fundamentally limited by…

Quantitative analysis of vectorial torques in thin 3d Co ferromagnet using orbital-spin conversion

B. Bony, S. Krishnia, Y. Xu +6

Recent findings in orbitronics pointed out large current-induced torques originating, in the current understanding, from incident orbital currents. These are generated by orbital R…
