摘要:

从第一性原理出发,研究了在铁磁Fe(110)衬底上生长的Ag $_{2}$ Bi端Ag(111)薄膜中的类场自旋轨道矩(SOTs).我们发现,SOT的很大一部分来自远离Fe层的Ag $_{2}$ Bi层中的自旋轨道相互作用(SOI)。这些结果清楚地暗示了在垂直于膜的方向上的长范围自旋转移,其不源于自旋霍尔效应。为了使证据的非本地字符的计算SOT,我们表明,作用在Fe层上的扭矩可以通过在Ag $_{2}$ Bi层中引入Bi空位来设计。总体而言,我们发现一个激烈的依赖SOT的无序类型,我们解释了一个复杂的相互作用的不同贡献的SOT在布里渊区。

英文摘要:

We investigate from first principles the field-like spin-orbit torques (SOTs) in a Ag$_{2}$Bi-terminated Ag(111) film grown on ferromagnetic Fe(110). We find that a large part of the SOT arises from the spin-orbit interaction (SOI) in the Ag$_{2}$Bi layer far away from the Fe layers. These results clearly hint at a long range spin transfer in the direction perpendicular to the film that does not originate in the spin Hall effect. In order to bring evidence of the non-local character of the computed SOT, we show that the torque acting on the Fe layers can be engineered by the introduction of Bi vacancies in the Ag$_{2}$Bi layer. Overall, we find a drastic dependence of the SOT on the disorder type, which we explain by a complex interplay of different contributions to the SOT in the Brillouin zone.
