Abstract

Spin Hall effects (SHEs) interconvert spin- and charge currents due to spin- orbit interaction, which enables convenient electrical generation and detection of diffusive spin currents and even collective spin excitations in magnetic solids. Here, we review recent experimental efforts exploring efficient spin Hall detector materials as well as new approaches to drive collective magnetization dynamics and to manipulate spin textures by SHEs. As a result, these studies are also expected to impact practical spintronics applications beyond their significance in fundamental research.

Core-Shell Structuring of Pure Metallic Aerogels towards Highly Efficient Platinum Utilization for the Oxygen Reduction Reaction

Journal Article Cai, Bin ; Hübner, René ; Sasaki, Kotaro ; ... - Angewandte Chemie (International Edition)

The development of core–shell structures remains a fundamental challenge for pure metallic aerogels. Here we report the synthesis of Pd _xAu-Pt core–shell aerogels composed of an ultrathin Pt shell and a composition-tunable Pd _xAu alloy core. The universality of this strategy ensures the extension of core compositions to Pd transition-metal alloys. The core–shell aerogels exhibited largely improved Pt utilization efficiencies for the oxygen reduction reaction and their activities show a volcano-type relationship as a function of the lattice parameter of the core substrate. The maximum mass and specific activities are 5.25 A mg _Pt ^-1 and 2.53 mA cm ^-2,more »« less

Spin Hall effects in metallic antiferromagnets – perspectives for future spin-orbitronics

Journal Article Sklenar, Joseph ; Zhang, Wei ; Jungfleisch, Matthias B. ; ... - AIP Advances

In this paper, we investigate angular dependent spin-orbit torques from the spin Hall effect in a metallic antiferromagnet using the spin-torque ferromagnetic resonance technique. The large spin Hall effect exists in PtMn, a prototypical CuAu-I-type metallic antiferromagnet. By applying epitaxial growth, we previously reported an appreciable difference in spin-orbit torques for c- and a-axis orientated samples, implying anisotropic effects in magnetically ordered materials. In this work we demonstrate through bipolar-magnetic-field experiments a small but noticeable asymmetric behavior in the spin-transfer-torque that appears as a hysteresis effect. Finally, we also suggest that metallic antiferromagnets may be good candidates for the investigationmore »« less

Spin Hall Effects in Metallic Antiferromagnets

Journal Article Zhang, Wei ; Jungfleisch, Matthias B. ; Jiang, Wanjun ; ... - Physical Review Letters

In this paper, we investigate four CuAu-I-type metallic antiferromagnets for their potential as spin current detectors using spin pumping and inverse spin Hall effect. Nontrivial spin Hall effects were observed for FeMn, PdMn, and IrMn while a much higher effect was obtained for PtMn. Using thickness-dependent measurements, we determined the spin diffusion lengths of these materials to be short, on the order of 1 nm. The estimated spin Hall angles of the four materials follow the relationship PtMn > IrMn > PdMn > FeMn, highlighting the correlation between the spin-orbit coupling of nonmagnetic species and the magnitude of the spinmore »« less

Half-metallic Co-based quaternary Heusler alloys for spintronics: Defect- and pressure-induced transitions and properties

Journal Article Enamullah, . ; Johnson, D. D. ; Suresh, K. G. ; ... - Physical Review B

Heusler compounds offer potential as spintronic devices due to their spin polarization and half-metallicity properties, where electron spin-majority (minority) manifold exhibits states (band gap) at the electronic chemical potential, yielding full spin polarization in a single manifold. Yet, Heuslers often exhibit intrinsic disorder that degrades its half-metallicity and spin polarization. Using density-functional theory, we analyze the electronic and magnetic properties of equiatomic Heusler (L2 ₁) CoMnCrAl and CoFeCrGe alloys for effects of hydrostatic pressure and intrinsic disorder (thermal antisites, binary swaps, and vacancies). Under pressure, CoMnCrAl undergoes a metallic transition, while half-metallicity in CoFeCrGe is retained for a limited range.more »« less
