In this new work, in collaboration with UC Berkeley, UC Riverside and the C2N, we inject 6 picosecond-wide current pulses into a Pt/Co/Cu/Ta structure, and demonstrate full switching of the Co magnetization via spin-orbit torques. We can even take a look at the ultrafast dynamics! For more information, check out publications!
Antiferromagnets are an exciting class of materials due to their inherently THz dynamics and complex interactions. Here, the highlight of our work is the demonstration that it is possible to switch the coupled antiferromagnet with Read more…
Thanks to a collaboration between IJL and SPINTEC laboratories we demonstrate that single pulse all optical switching is achieved in Co68Tb32/Co100-xGdx/Co68Tb32 tri-layers. The reversal behavior can be tuned from toggle to precessional switching by changing the Read more…
A new study has shed light on how a thin layer of platinum with very high crystalline quality can convert the spin of electrons into electric current and vice versa. This phenomenon, known as spin-to-charge Read more…
