Role of dimensional crossover on spin-orbit torque efficiency in magnetic insulator thin films

Role of dimensional crossover on spin-orbit torque efficiency in magnetic insulator thin films

The spin-orbit torque (SOT) induced magnetic switching makes metal/magnetic insulators bilayers preferred in the energy efficient spintronic applications. Here the authors show SOT switching in W/TmIG bilayers and reveal the dimension crossover of SOT as a function of TmIG thickness.
