Deterministic Spin-Orbit Torque Induced Magnetization Reversal In Pt/[Co/Ni] n /Co/Ta Multilayer Hall Bars. Scientific Reports, 7, 972-. | Series/Report no.: | Scientific Reports | Abstract: | Spin-orbit torque (SOT) induced by electric current has attracted extensive attention as an efficient method of controlling the magnetization in nanomagnetic structures. SOT-induced magnetization reversal is usually achieved with the aid of an in-plane bias magnetic field. In this paper, we show that by selecting a film stack with weak out-of-plane magnetic anisotropy, field-free SOT-induced switching can be achieved in micron sized multilayers. Using direct current, deterministic bipolar magnetization reversal is obtained in Pt/[Co/Ni]2/Co/Ta structures. Kerr imaging reveals that the SOT-induced magnetization switching process is completed via the nucleation of reverse domain and propagation of domain wall in the system. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/83634 http://hdl.handle.net/10220/42730 |
