Efficient conversion of orbital Hall current to spin current for spin-orbit torque switching
Manipulation of the magnetization is of major importance in spintronics. The authors demonstrate that an electric field triggers a transverse flow of orbital moment: the so-called orbital Hall effect. This enables the efficient magnetization control, holding the promise for fast and miniaturized mem...
