Temperature dependent spin transport properties of platinum inferred from spin Hall magnetoresistance measurements
Temperature dependent spin transport properties of platinum inferred from spin Hall magnetoresistance measurements
We study the temperature dependence of the spin Hall magnetoresistance (SMR) in yttrium iron garnet/platinum hybrid structures via magnetization orientation dependent magnetoresistance measurements. Our experiments show a decrease of the SMR magnitude with decreasing temperature. Using the sensitivity of the SMR to the spin transport properties of the normal metal, …
