摘要
Spin Hall effect in PdPt alloys in contact with ferromagnetic Ni80Fe20 alloys has been studied by spin torque ferromagnetic resonance technique. The spin torque spin Hall angle (ST-SHA) proves to be contributed by the interfacial and bulk SHAs. The bulk SHA is dominated by the skew scattering and reaches a maximal value for the largest randomization of Pt and Pd atoms at the intermediate alloy composition. In particular, the interfacial SHA becomes prominent for Pt-rich alloys. This phenomenon indicates the enhanced Rashba spin-orbit coupling at the interface, as Pt has a stronger spin-orbit coupling and larger z-potential gradient compared to Pd. The present work highlights the interfacial SHA and provides a pathway to improve the functionality and performance of the next generation spintronic devices.
