Spin Hall effects convert charge currents into spin currents and vice versa even in
nonmagnetic conductors due to spin orbit coupling. This enables spin Hall effects to be …

The field of spintronics, or magnetic electronics, is maturing and giving rise to new subfields.
These new directions involve the study of collective spin excitations and couplings of the …

We show that in a perpendicularly magnetized Pt/Co bilayer the spin-Hall effect (SHE) in Pt
can produce a spin torque strong enough to efficiently rotate and switch the Co …

Through combined ferromagnetic resonance, spin pumping, and inverse spin Hall effect
experiments in Co| Pt bilayers and Co| Cu| Pt trilayers, we demonstrate consistent values of …

Recent advances in the studies of pure spin currents–flows of angular momentum (spin) not
accompanied by the electric currents–have opened new horizons for the emerging …

Energy loss due to ohmic heating is a major bottleneck limiting down-scaling and speed of
nano-electronic devices, and harvesting ohmic heat for signal processing is a major …

Tailoring Gilbert damping of metallic ferromagnetic thin films is one of the central interests in
spintronics applications. Here we report a giant Gilbert damping anisotropy in epitaxial Co …

As an in-plane charge current flows in a heavy metal film with spin–orbit coupling, it
produces a torque on and thereby switches the magnetization in a neighbouring …

Spintronics using topological insulators (TIs) as strong spin–orbit coupling (SOC) materials
have emerged and shown rapid progress in the past few years. Different from traditional …

The effective field torque of an yttrium-iron-garnet (YIG) film on the spin accumulation in an
attached platinum (Pt) film is measured by the spin-Hall magnetoresistance (SMR). As a …
