Heavy metal-ferromagnet bilayer structures have attracted great research interest for charge-to-spin interconversion. In this work, we have investigated the effect of the permalloy seed layer on the Ta polycrystalline phase and its spin Hall angle. Interestingly, for the same deposition rates the crystalline phase of Ta deposited on Py seed layer strongly depends on the thickness of the seed layer. We have observed a phase transition from $alpha$-Ta to ($alpha$+$beta$)-Ta while increasing the Py seed layer thickness. The observed phase transition is attributed to the strain at interface between Py and Ta layers. Ferromagnetic resonance-based spin pumping studies reveal that the spin-mixing conductance in the to ($alpha$+$beta$)-Ta is relatively higher as compared to the to $alpha$-Ta. Spin Hall angles of to $alpha$-Ta and to ($alpha$+$beta$)-Ta are extracted from inverse spin Hall effect (ISHE) measurements. Spin Hall angle of the to ($alpha$+$beta$)-Ta is estimated to be $theta$_SH=-0.15 which is relatively higher than that of to $alpha$-Ta. Our systematic results connecting the phase of the Ta with seed layer and its effect on the efficiency of spin to charge conversion might resolve ambiguities across various literature and open up new functionalities based on the growth process for the emerging spintronic devices.

We investigate the spin-current transport through antiferromagnetic insulator (AFMI) by means of the spin-Hall magnetoressitance (SMR) over a wide temperature range in Pt/NiO/Y$_3$Fe$_5$O$_{12}$ (Pt/NiO/YIG) heterostructures. By inserting the AFMI Ni
O layer, the SMR dramatically decreases by decreasing the temperature down to the antiferromagnetically ordered state of NiO, which implies that the AFM order prevents rather than promotes the spin-current transport. On the other hand, the magnetic proximity effect (MPE) on induced Pt moments by YIG, which entangles with the spin-Hall effect (SHE) in Pt, can be efficiently screened, and pure SMR can be derived by insertion of NiO. The dual roles of the NiO insertion including efficiently blocking the MPE and transporting the spin current from Pt to YIG are outstanding compared with other antiferromagnetic (AFM) metal or nonmagnetic metal (NM).
Quantum spin Hall (QSH) effect with great promise for the potential application in spintronics and quantum computing has attracted extensive research interest from both theoretical and experimental researchers. Here, we predict monolayer Ta$_2$Pd$_3$
Te$_5$ can be a QSH insulator based on first-principles calculations. The interlayer binding energy in the layered van der Waals compound Ta$_2$Pd$_3$Te$_5$ is 19.6 meV/A$^2$; thus, its monolayer/thin-film structures could be readily obtained by exfoliation. The band inversion near the Fermi level ($E_F$) is an intrinsic characteristic, which happens between Ta-$5d$ and Pd-$4d$ orbitals without spin-orbit coupling (SOC). The SOC effect opens a global gap and makes the system a QSH insulator. With the $d$-$d$ band-inverted feature, the nontrivial topology in monolayer Ta$_2$Pd$_3$Te$_5$ is characterized by the time-reversal topological invariant $mathbb Z_2=1$, which is computed by the one-dimensional (1D) Wilson loop method as implemented in our first-principles calculations. The helical edge modes are also obtained using surface Greens function method. Our calculations show that the QSH state in Ta$_2M_3$Te$_5$ ($M=$ Pd, Ni) can be tuned by external strain. These monolayers and thin films provide feasible platforms for realizing QSH effect as well as related devices.
We report the enhancement of spin-orbit torques in MnAl/Ta films with improving chemical ordering through annealing. The switching current density is increased due to enhanced saturation magnetization MS and effective anisotropy field HK after anneal
ing. Both damplinglike effective field HD and fieldlike effective field HF have been increased in the temperature range of 50 to 300 K. HD varies inversely with MS in both of the films, while the HF becomes liner dependent on 1/MS in the annealed film. We infer that the improved chemical ordering has enhanced the interfacial spin transparency and the transmitting of the spin current in MnAl layer.
As spintronic devices become more and more prevalent, the desire to find Pt free materials with large spin Hall effects is increasing. Previously it was shown that Beta W, the metastable A15 structured variant of pure W, has charge-spin conversion ef
ficiencies on par with Pt, and it was predicted that Beta W(Ta) alloys should be even more efficient. Here we demonstrate the enhancement of the spin Hall ratio (SHR) in A15-phase Beta W films doped with Ta (W(4-x)Tax where x is between 0.28 and 0.4, deposited at room temperature using DC magnetron co-sputtering. In close agreement with theoretical predictions, we find that the SHR of the doped films was approx. 9 percent larger than pure Beta W films. We also found that the SHRs in devices with Co2Fe6B2 were nearly twice as large as the SHRs in devices with Co4Fe4B2. This work shows that by optimizing deposition parameters and substrates, the fabrication of the optimum W3Ta alloy should be feasible, opening the door to commercially viable, Pt free, spintronic devices.
A layer of sand of thickness h flows down a rough surface if the inclination is larger than some threshold value theta which decreases with h. A tentative microscopic model for the dependence of theta with h is proposed for rigid frictional grains, b
ased on the following hypothesis: (i) a horizontal layer of sand has some coordination z larger than a critical value z_c where mechanical stability is lost (ii) as the tilt angle is increased, the configurations visited present a growing proportion $_s of sliding contacts. Instability with respect to flow occurs when z-z_s=z_c. This criterion leads to a prediction for theta(h) in good agreement with empirical observations.
