Abstract
Spin accumulation and spin transfer torques induced by Spin Hall Effect in bi-layer structures comprising ferromagnetic and paramagnetic materials are theoretically investigated. The charge and spin diffusion equations taking into account spin-flip and spin Hall effect are formulated and solved analytically and numerically for in structures with simplified and complex geometry, respectively. It is demonstrated that spin torques could be efficiently produced by means of Spin Hall effect which may be further enhanced by modifying structure geometry.
