摘要:
我们制备了一种具有垂直磁各向异性的楔形 Pt/Co/Pt 器件,并证明 Co 的磁化可以在没有任何磁场的情况下仅由自旋轨道矩实现翻转。与突触权重类似,我们观察到楔形 Pt/Co/Pt 器件的 Co 磁化状态(由反常霍尔电阻 RH 表示)可通过施加脉冲电流进行连续调节,并具有大量非易失性能级。此外,我们研究了楔形 Pt/Co/Pt 器件的突触可塑性,包括兴奋性突触后电位或抑制性突触后电位,以及脉冲时间依赖可塑性。该工作阐明了楔形 Pt/Co/Pt 器件作为由自旋电流诱导的新型人工突触器件候选者的前景,并为自旋电子学与突触器件的结合铺平了重要道路。
英文摘要:
We fabricated a wedge-shaped Pt/Co/Pt device with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy and manifested that the Co magnetization can be solely switched by spin-orbit torque without any magnetic field. Similar to the synaptic weight, we observed that the state of Co magnetization (presented by the anomalous Hall resistance RH) of the wedged Pt/Co/Pt device can be tuned continuously with a large number of nonvolatile levels by applied pulse currents. Furthermore, we studied the synaptic plasticity of the wedged Pt/Co/Pt device, including the excitatory postsynaptic potentials or inhibitory postsynaptic potentials and spiking-time-dependent plasticity. The work elucidates the promise of the wedged Pt/Co/Pt device as a candidate for a new type of artificial synaptic device that is induced by a spin current and paves a substantial pathway toward the combination of spintronics and synaptic devices.
