One fundamental obstacle to efficient ferromagnetic spintronics is magnetic precession, which intrinsically limits the dynamics of magnetic textures. We experimentally demonstrate that this precession vanishes when the net angular momentum is compensated in domain walls driven by spin-orbit torque in a ferrimagnetic GdFeCo/Pt track. We use transverse in-plane fields to provide a robust and parameter-free measurement of the domain wall internal magnetisation angle, demonstrating that, at the angular compensation, the DW tilt is zero, and thus the magnetic precession that caused it is suppressed. Our results highlight the mechanism of faster and more efficient dynamics in materials with multiple spin lattices and vanishing net angular momentum, promising for high-speed, low-power spintronic applications.
高效铁磁自旋电子学的一个基本障碍是磁进动,它本质上限制了磁畴结构的动力学。我们通过实验证明,当在亚铁磁GdFeCo/Pt轨道中由自旋轨道转矩驱动的畴壁中的净角动量得到补偿时,这种进动就会消失。我们使用横向面内场来对畴壁内部磁化角进行稳健且无参数的测量,结果表明,在角补偿时,畴壁倾斜为零,因此导致倾斜的磁进动被抑制。我们的结果突出了具有多个自旋晶格且净角动量消失的材料中更快、更高效动力学的机制,这对于高速、低功耗自旋电子学应用具有前景。
