摘要:

实验研究了NiFe/Pt双层膜中直接界面和间断界面的自旋-轨道矩和自旋抽运。同时测量的阻尼类和类场转矩与自旋转矩铁磁共振调谐的直流偏置电流,而自旋泵电测量通过逆自旋霍尔效应使用微波腔。在界面处插入原子级薄的Cu粉化层减少了阻尼类扭矩、类场扭矩和自旋泵送,其减少因子几乎相同,为~1.4。这一发现证实了所观察到的自旋-轨道力矩主要来自自旋霍尔效应产生的自旋电流的扩散输运。我们还发现,在NiFe/Pt界面的自旋电流散射有助于额外的增强磁化阻尼,这是不同的自旋泵。

英文摘要:

We experimentally investigate spin-orbit torques and spin pumping in NiFe/Pt bilayers with direct and interrupted interfaces. The damping-like and field-like torques are simultaneously measured with spin-torque ferromagnetic resonance tuned by a dc bias current, whereas spin pumping is measured electrically through the inverse spin Hall effect using a microwave cavity. Insertion of an atomically thin Cu dusting layer at the interface reduces the damping-like torque, field-like torque, and spin pumping by nearly the same factor of ~1.4. This finding confirms that the observed spin-orbit torques predominantly arise from diffusive transport of spin current generated by the spin Hall effect. We also find that spin-current scattering at the NiFe/Pt interface contributes to additional enhancement in magnetization damping that is distinct from spin pumping.
