Figure 1. The spin Hall magnetoresistance (SMR) in W/CoFeB/MgO structure.

Figure 1

(a) Schematic illustration of SMR, based on the interaction of the spin current induced by the spin Hall effect with magnetization direction. The measurement scheme of longitudinal (Rxx) and transverse (Rxy) resistances is shown on the right. Rxx (b) and Rxy (c) of the sample W(5 nm)/CoFeB(1.2 nm)/MgO(1.6 nm) as a function of Hx and Hy, respectively. The black solid (red open) circles represent the data for Hx (Hy).
