Spin-orbit torques (SOTs) have been widely understood as an interfacial transfer of spin that is independent of the bulk properties of the magnetic layer. Here, we report that SOTs acting on ferrimagnetic FexTb1-x layers decrease and vanish…

Electric field induced spin-orbit torques are the crucial mechanism for electric regulations of antiferromagnetic order. However, the spin-orbit torques in antiferromagnets and the induced spin dynamics remain largely unexplored. In this…

Spin polarized currents are employed to efficiently manipulate the magnetization of ferromagnetic ultrathin films by exerting a torque on it. If the spin currents are generated by means of the spin-orbit interaction between a ferromagnetic…

We report that spin current transport across Pt-ferromagnet (FM) interfaces is strongly dependent on the type and the thickness of the FM layer and on post-deposition processing protocols. By employing both harmonic voltage measurements and…

We study spin-orbit torques (SOTs) in Ni/Pt bi-layers and multi-layers by ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) and harmonic-Hall measurements. The effect of multi-layering and crystal orientation on field-like (FL) and damping-like (DL) torque…

Spin current and spin torque generation through the spin-orbit interactions in solids, of bulk or interfacial origin, is at the heart of spintronics research. The realization of spin-orbit torque (SOT) driven magnetic dynamics and switching…

We identify a mechanism to convert skyrmions and antiskyrmions into their antiferromagnetic (AFM) counterparts via interfacial engineering. The key idea is to combine properties of an antiferromagnet and a spin-orbit (SO) coupled metal.…

Spin-orbit interaction (SOI) couples charge and spin transport, enabling electrical control of magnetization. A quintessential example of SOI-induced transport is the anomalous Hall effect (AHE), first observed in 1880, in which an electric…
