Ferromagnetic (FM)/heavy metal (HM) nanostructures can be used for the magnetic state readout in the proposed magneto-electric spin-orbit logic by locally injecting a spin-polarized current and measure the spin-to-charge conversion via the spin Hall effect. However, this local configuration is prone to spurious signals. In this work, we address spurious Hall effects that can contaminate the spin Hall signal in these FM/HM T-shaped nanostructures. The most pronounced Hall effects in our Co50Fe50/Pt nanostructures are the planar Hall effect and the anomalous Hall effect generated in the FM nanowire. We find that the planar Hall effect, induced by misalignment between magnetization and current direction in the FM wire, is manifested as a shift in the measured baseline resistance, but does not alter the spin Hall signal. In contrast, the anomalous Hall effect, arising from the charge current distribution within the FM, adds to the spin Hall signal. However, the effect can be made insignificant by minimizing the shunting effect via proper design of the device. We conclude that local spin injection in FM/HM nanostructures is a suitable tool for measuring spin Hall signals and, therefore, a valid method for magnetic state readout in prospective spin-based logic.

Efficient detection of the magnetic state at nanoscale dimensions is an important step to utilize spin logic devices for computing. Magnetoresistance effects have been hitherto used in magnetic state detection, but they suffer from energetically unfa vorable scaling and do not generate an electromotive force that can be used to drive a circuit element for logic device applications. Here, we experimentally show that a favorable miniaturization law is possible via the use of spin-Hall detection of the in-plane magnetic state of a magnet. This scaling law allows us to obtain a giant signal by spin Hall effect in CoFe/Pt nanostructures and quantify an effective spin-to-charge conversion rate for the CoFe/Pt system. The spin-to-charge conversion can be described as a current source with an internal resistance, i.e., it generates an electromotive force that can be used to drive computing circuits. We predict that the spin-orbit detection of magnetic states can reach high efficiency at reduced dimensions, paving the way for scalable spin-orbit logic devices and memories.
We theoretically examine the spin-transfer torque in the presence of spin-orbit interaction (SOI) at impurities in a ferromagnetic metal on the basis of linear response theory. We obtained, in addition to the usual spin-transfer torque, a new contrib utioin $sim {bm j}_{rm SH}^{phantom{dagger}} cdot abla {bm n}$ in the first order in SOI, where ${bm j}_{rm SH}^{phantom{dagger}}$ is the spin Hall current driven by an external electric field. This is a reaction to inverse spin Hall effect driven by spin motive force in a ferromagnet.
It has been recently shown that monolayers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) in the 2H structural phase exhibit relatively large orbital Hall conductivity plateaus within their energy band gaps, where their spin Hall conductivities vanish. H owever, since the valley Hall effect (VHE) in these systems also generates a transverse flow of orbital angular momentum it becomes experimentally challenging to distinguish between the two effects in these materials. The VHE requires inversion symmetry breaking to occur, which takes place in the TMD monolayers, but not in the bilayers. We show that a bilayer of 2H-MoS$_2$ is an orbital Hall insulator that exhibits a sizeable OHE in the absence of both spin and valley Hall effects. This phase can be characterised by an orbital Chern number that assumes the value $mathcal{C}_{L}=2$ for the 2H-MoS$_2$ bilayer and $mathcal{C}_{L}=1$ for the monolayer, confirming the topological nature of these orbital-Hall insulator systems. Our results are based on density functional theory (DFT) and low-energy effective model calculations and strongly suggest that bilayers of TMDs are highly suitable platforms for direct observation of the orbital Hall insulating phase in two-dimensional materials. Implications of our findings for attempts to observe the VHE in TMD bilayers are also discussed.
We study the mechanisms of the spin Hall effect (SHE) and anomalous Hall effect (AHE) in 3$d$ ferromagnetic metals (Fe, Co, permalloy (Ni$_{81}$Fe$_{19}$; Py), and Ni) by varying their resistivities and temperature. At low temperatures where the phon on scattering is negligible, the skew scattering coefficients of the SHE and AHE in Py are related to its spin polarization. However, this simple relation breaks down for Py at higher temperatures as well as for the other ferromagnetic metals at any temperature. We find that, in general, the relation between the SHE and AHE is more complex, with the temperature dependence of the SHE being much stronger than that of AHE.
The Mott relation between the electrical and thermoelectric transport coefficients normally holds for phenomena involving scattering. However, the anomalous Hall effect (AHE) in ferromagnets may arise from intrinsic spin-orbit interaction. In this wo rk, we have simultaneously measured AHE and the anomalous Nernst effect (ANE) in Ga1-xMnxAs ferromagnetic semiconductor films, and observed an exceptionally large ANE at zero magnetic field. We further show that AHE and ANE share a common origin and demonstrate the validity of the Mott relation for the anomalous transport phenomena.
