RESUMO

Magnetic domain walls are information tokens in both logic and memory devices and hold particular interest in applications such as neuromorphic accelerators that combine logic in memory. Here, we show that devices based on the electrical manipulation of magnetic domain walls are capable of implementing linear, as well as programmable nonlinear, functions. Unlike other approaches, domain-wall-based devices are ideal for application to both synaptic weight generators and thresholding in deep neural networks. Prototype micrometer-size devices operate with 8 ns current pulses and the energy consumption required for weight modulation is ≤16 pJ. Both speed and energy consumption compare favorably to other synaptic nonvolatile devices, with the expected energy dissipation for scaled 20 nm devices close to that of biological neurons.

RESUMO

The spin Hall effect in heavy metals converts charge current into pure spin current, which can be injected into an adjacent ferromagnet to exert a torque. This spin-orbit torque (SOT) has been widely used to manipulate the magnetization in metallic ferromagnets. In the case of magnetic insulators (MIs), although charge currents cannot flow, spin currents can propagate, but current-induced control of the magnetization in a MI has so far remained elusive. Here we demonstrate spin-current-induced switching of a perpendicularly magnetized thulium iron garnet film driven by charge current in a Pt overlayer. We estimate a relatively large spin-mixing conductance and damping-like SOT through spin Hall magnetoresistance and harmonic Hall measurements, respectively, indicating considerable spin transparency at the Pt/MI interface. We show that spin currents injected across this interface lead to deterministic magnetization reversal at low current densities, paving the road towards ultralow-dissipation spintronic devices based on MIs.

RESUMO

Cobalt-substituted SrTiO3 films (SrTi0.70Co0.30O(3-δ)) were grown on SrTiO3 substrates using pulsed laser deposition under oxygen pressures ranging from 1 µTorr to 20 mTorr. The effect of oxygen pressure on structural, magnetic, optical, and magneto-optical properties of the films was investigated. The film grown at 3 µTorr has the highest Faraday rotation (FR) and magnetic saturation moment (M(s)). Increasing oxygen pressure during growth reduced M(s), FR and optical absorption in the near-infrared. This trend is attributed to decreasing Co2+ ion concentration and oxygen vacancy concentration with higher oxygen partial pressure during growth.

RESUMO

Perovskite-structured SrTi0.7Co0.3O3-δ (STCo) films of varying thicknesses were grown on SrTiO3(001) substrates using pulsed laser deposition. Thin films grow with a cube-on-cube epitaxy, but for films exceeding a critical thickness of about 120 nm, a double-epitaxial microstructure was observed, in which (110)-oriented crystals nucleated within the (001)-oriented STCo matrix, both orientations being epitaxial with the substrate. The crystal structure, strain state, and magnetic properties are described as a function of film thickness. Both the magnetic moment and the coercivity show maxima at the critical thickness. The formation of a double-epitaxial microstructure provides a mechanism for strain relief in epitaxially mismatched films.
