摘要:

利用自旋-轨道力矩(SOT)对铁磁体中的磁化进行电流诱导控制作为快速且节能的磁存储器件的新机制引起了人们的关注。高能效自旋电子器件需要具有大的SOT效率($ξ$)和电导率($σ$)的自旋电流源,以及穿过透明界面的有效自旋注入。在这里,我们使用范德瓦尔斯(vdW)拓扑半金属WTe $_2$和vdW铁磁体Fe $_3$ GeTe $_2$的单晶,以满足在其所有的vdW-异质结构与原子尖锐的界面的要求。结果显示了WTe $_2$的$ξ{\approx}4.6$和$σ{\approx}2.25{\times}10^5 Ω^{-1} m^{-1}$值。此外,我们得到了显着降低的开关电流密度的$3.90{\times}10^6 A/cm^2$在150 K,这是一个数量级小于传统的重金属/铁磁薄膜。这些研究结果强调,工程vdw型拓扑材料和磁体提供了一个有前途的路线,以节能的磁化控制在基于SOI的自旋电子学。

英文摘要:

Current-induced control of magnetization in ferromagnets using spin-orbit torque (SOT) has drawn attention as a new mechanism for fast and energy efficient magnetic memory devices. Energy-efficient spintronic devices require a spin-current source with a large SOT efficiency ($ξ$) and electrical conductivity ($σ$), and an efficient spin injection across a transparent interface. Herein, we use single crystals of the van der Waals (vdW) topological semimetal WTe$_2$ and vdW ferromagnet Fe$_3$GeTe$_2$ to satisfy the requirements in their all-vdW-heterostructure with an atomically sharp interface. The results exhibit values of $ξ{\approx}4.6$ and $σ{\approx}2.25{\times}10^5 Ω^{-1} m^{-1}$ for WTe$_2$. Moreover, we obtain the significantly reduced switching current density of $3.90{\times}10^6 A/cm^2$ at 150 K, which is an order of magnitude smaller than those of conventional heavy-metal/ ferromagnet thin films. These findings highlight that engineering vdW-type topological materials and magnets offers a promising route to energy-efficient magnetization control in SOT-based spintronics.
