Origin of spin–orbit torque in single-layer CoFeB investigated via in-plane harmonic Hall measurements

The current-induced spin–orbit torque in single-layer ferromagnetic CoFeB thin films is quantitatively investigated by using in-plane harmonic Hall measurements. After the subtraction of thermal contributions such as the anomalous and ordinary Nernst effects, the obtained overall spin–orbit torque i...
