Voltage modulation of yttrium iron garnet (YIG) with compactness, high speed response, energy efficiency and both practical/theoretical siginificances can be widely applied to various YIG based spintronics such as spin Hall, spin pumping, spin Seeback effects. Here we initial an ionic modulation of interfacial magnetism process on YIG/Pt bilayer heterostructures, where the Pt capping would influence the ferromagnetic (FMR) field position significantly, and realize a significant magnetism enhancement in bilayer system. A large voltage induced FMR field shifts of 690 Oe has been achieved in YIG (13 nm)/Pt (3 nm) multilayer heterostructures under a small voltage bias of 4.5 V. The remarkable ME tunability comes from voltage induced extra FM ordering in Pt metal layer near the Pt/YIG interface. The first-principle theoretical simulation reveal that the electrostatic doping induced Pt5+ ions have strong magnetic ordering due to uncompensated d orbit electrons. The large voltage control of FMR change pave a foundation towards novel voltage tunable YIG based spintronics.

In metal/oxide heterostructures, rich chemical, electronic, magnetic and mechanical properties can emerge from interfacial chemistry and structure. The possibility to dynamically control interface characteristics with an electric field paves the way towards voltage control of these properties in solid-state devices. Here we show that electrical switching of the interfacial oxidation state allows for voltage control of magnetic properties to an extent never before achieved through conventional magnetoelectric coupling mechanisms. We directly observe, for the first time, in situ voltage driven O$^{2-}$ migration in a Co/metal-oxide bilayer, which we use to toggle the interfacial magnetic anisotropy energy by >0.6 erg/cm$^2$. We exploit the thermally-activated nature of ion migration to dramatically increase the switching efficiency and to demonstrate reversible patterning of magnetic properties through local activation of ionic migration. These results suggest a path towards voltage-programmable materials based on solid-state switching of interface oxygen chemistry.
We experimentally investigate spin-orbit torque and spin pumping in Y$_3$Fe$_5$O$_{12}$(YIG)/Pt bilayers with ultrathin insertion layers at the interface. An insertion layer of Cu suppresses both spin-orbit torque and spin pumping, whereas an inserti on layer of Ni$_{80}$Fe$_{20}$ (permalloy, Py) enhances them, in a quantitatively consistent manner with the reciprocity of the two spin transmission processes. However, we observe a large enhancement of Gilbert damping with the insertion of Py that cannot be accounted for solely by spin pumping, suggesting significant spin-memory loss due to the interfacial magnetic layer. Our findings indicate that the magnetization at the YIG-metal interface strongly influences the transmission and depolarization of pure spin current.
Despite a decade of research, the precise mechanisms occurring at interfaces underlying the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI), and thus the possibility of fine-tuning it, are not yet fully identified. In this study, we investigate the origin of the interfacial DMI, aiming at disentangling how independent are the interfaces around the ferromagnetic layer, and what are their relative contributions to the effective DMI amplitude. For this purpose, we have grown and investigated a large variety of systems with a common structure Pt$|$Co$|M$ with $M =$ Ni, Pd, Ru, Al, Al$|$Ta and MoSi. We explore the correlation between the effective interfacial DMI, and different intrinsic properties of metals, namely atomic number, electronegativity and work function difference at the Co$|M$ interfaces. We find a linear relationship between interfacial DMI and the work function difference between the two elements, hence relating the nature of this behavior to the interfacial potential gradient at the metallic interfaces. The understanding of the DMI mechanism is of utmost importance since it opens up the possibility of precisely engineering the magnetic and hence the spintronic properties for future devices.
We develop a self-consistent theory for current-induced spin wave excitations in normal metal-magnetic insulator bilayer systems, thereby establishing the relation between spin wave excitation and the experimentally controlled parameters. We fully ta ke into account the complex spin wave spectrum including dipolar interactions and surface anisotropy as well as the spin-pumping at the interface. Our results focus on the mode-dependent power close to the critical currents for spin wave excitation. The major findings are (a) the spin transfer torque can excite different spin-wave modes simultaneously; (b) spin pumping counterbalances spin-transfer torque and affects the surface modes more than the bulk modes; (c) spin pumping inhibits high frequency spin-wave modes, thereby redshifting the excitation spectrum. We can get agreement with experiments on yttrium iron garnet|platinum bilayers by postulating the existence of surface anisotropy modes.
We study the local and non-local magnetoresistance of thin Pt strips deposited onto yttrium iron garnet. The local magnetoresistive response, inferred from the voltage drop measured along one given Pt strip upon current-biasing it, shows the characte ristic magnetization orientation dependence of the spin Hall magnetoresistance. We simultaneously also record the non-local voltage appearing along a second, electrically isolated, Pt strip, separated from the current carrying one by a gap of a few 100 nm. The corresponding non-local magnetoresistance exhibits the symmetry expected for a magnon spin accumulation-driven process, confirming the results recently put forward by Cornelissen et al. [1]. Our magnetotransport data, taken at a series of different temperatures as a function of magnetic field orientation, rotating the externally applied field in three mutually orthogonal planes, show that the mechanisms behind the spin Hall and the non-local magnetoresistance are qualitatively different. In particular, the non-local magnetoresistance vanishes at liquid Helium temperatures, while the spin Hall magnetoresistance prevails.
