Reduction of in-plane field required for spin-orbit torque magnetization reversal by insertion of Au spacer in Pt/Au/Co/Ni/Co/Ta

© 2017 Author(s). Spin-orbit torques and current-induced switching are studied in perpendicularly magnetized Pt/Au/(Co/Ni/Co) films as a function of Au insertion layer thickness tAu. By simultaneously varying the ferromagnet layer thickness, a parametric series of samples with nearly constant anisot...
