Electrical control of the exchange spring in antiferromagnetic metals is obtained in [Co/Pt]/IrMn Hall devices by using an ionic liquid, where the exchange spring could transfer the "force" and enable a deeper modulation depth in the IrMn. This work provides a new approach toward electrical modulation of the spin structures in metallic antiferromagnets, which should be significant in advancing the development of low-power-consumption antiferromagnet (AFM) spintronics.
在[Co/Pt]/IrMn 霍尔器件中,通过使用离子液体实现了反铁磁金属中交换弹簧的电控制,其中交换弹簧可以传递“力”,并使 IrMn 中的调制深度更深。这项工作为金属反铁磁体中自旋结构的电调制提供了一种新方法,这对于推进低功耗反铁磁(AFM)自旋电子学的发展应该具有重要意义。
