Magnetic proximity effects and spin charge conversion enhancements in ferromagnetic/antiferromagnetic/normal metal heterostructures
Normal Metal (NM)/ferromagnet(FM) heterostructures exhibit unique magnetic and electronic properties of high interest for spintronics and device applications. These systems host both the spin-Hall effect and inverse spin Hall effect and have led to the observation of a new type of magnetoresistance knows as spin Hall magnetoresistance(SMR). Recently it has been observed that the introduction of an antiferromagnetic (AFM) layer into this system can dramatically increase the spin charge conversion. One of the main assumptions in the NM/AFM/FM systems is that magnetism is spatially confined to the FM and AFM. This proposal aims to continue to work of proposal 5-54-338 by revealing the effect of the AFM layer on magnetic proximity effects in the normal metal, which is critical for pure spin conversion. Polarized neutron reflectometry provides the required high interface and magnetic sensitivity to identify and quantify the magnetization profile of the FM and nonmagnetic metal and AFM layers.
