The spin Hall effect (SHE) generates spin currents within nonmagnetic materials. Previously, studies of the SHE have been motivated primarily to understand its fundamental origin and magnitude. Here we demonstrate, using measurement and modeling, that in a Pt/Co bilayer with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy the SHE can produce a spin transfer torque that is strong enough to efficiently rotate and reversibly switch the Co magnetization, thereby providing a new strategy both to understand the SHE and to manipulate magnets. We suggest that the SHE torque can have a similarly strong influence on current-driven magnetic domain wall motion in Pt/ferromagnet multilayers. We estimate that in optimized devices the SHE torque can switch magnetic moments using currents comparable to those in magnetic tunnel junctions operated by conventional spin-torque switching, meaning that the SHE can enable magnetic memory and logic devices with similar performance but simpler architecture than the current state of the art.
We report a giant spin Hall effect (SHE) in {beta}-Ta that generates spin currents intense enough to induce efficient spin-transfer-torque switching of ferromagnets, thereby providing a new approach for controlling magnetic devices that can be superi
Two promising strategies for achieving efficient control of magnetization in future magnetic memory and non-volatile spin logic devices are spin transfer torque from spin polarized currents and voltage-controlled magnetic anisotropy (VCMA). Spin tran
Precise estimation of spin Hall angle as well as successful maximization of spin-orbit torque (SOT) form a basis of electronic control of magnetic properties with spintronic functionality. Until now, current-nonlinear Hall effect, or second harmonic
Current induced spin-orbit torques driven by the conventional spin Hall effect are widely used to manipulate the magnetization. This approach, however, is nondeterministic and inefficient for the switching of magnets with perpendicular magnetic aniso
Spin-orbit-torque (SOT) switching using the spin Hall effect (SHE) in heavy metals and topological insulators (TIs) has great potential for ultra-low power magnetoresistive random-access memory (MRAM). To be competitive with conventional spin-transfe
