Deterministic and stochastic aspects of current-induced magnetization reversal in perpendicular nanomagnets

Giacomo Sala, Jan Meyer, Anne Flechsig +2

We study the incubation and transition times that characterize the magnetization switching induced by spin-orbit torques in nanomagnets with perpendicular anisotropy. We present a…

Orbital Hanle Magnetoresistance in a 3d Transition Metal

Giacomo Sala, Hanchen Wang, William Legrand +1

The Hanle magnetoresistance is a telltale signature of spin precession in nonmagnetic conductors, in which strong spin-orbit coupling generates edge spin accumulation via the spin…

Spin-orbit torques and magnetization switching in Gd/Fe multilayers generated by current injection in NiCu alloys

Federica Nasr, Federico Binda, Charles-Henri Lambert +3

Light transition metals have recently emerged as a sustainable material class for efficient spin-charge interconversion. We report measurements of current-induced spin-orbit torque…

Giant orbital Hall effect and orbital-to-spin conversion in 3d, 5d, and 4f metallic heterostructures

Giacomo Sala, Pietro Gambardella

The orbital Hall effect provides an alternative means to the spin Hall effect to convert a charge current into a flow of angular momentum. Recently, compelling signatures of orbita…

Time-dependent multistate switching of topological antiferromagnetic order in MnSn

Gunasheel Kauwtilyaa Krishnaswamy, Giacomo Sala, Benjamin Jacot +4

The manipulation of antiferromagnetic order by means of spin-orbit torques opens unprecedented opportunities to exploit the dynamics of antiferromagnets in spintronic devices. In t…

Chiral Coupling between Magnetic Layers with Orthogonal Magnetization

Can Onur Avci, Charles-Henri Lambert, Giacomo Sala +1

We report on the occurrence of strong interlayer Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) between an in-plane magnetized Co layer and a perpendicularly magnetized TbFe layer through…
