Current-induced magnetic domain wall motion in Pt/Co/Pd and Pd/Co/Pt structures with opposite sign of Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction

The authors have investigated magnetic domain wall (DW) motion induced by electrical current in the perpendicularly magnetized Pt/Co/Pd and Pd/Co/Pt structures. In these systems, owing to the spin-orbit torque (SOT) and the interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI), the DW moves in the cur...
