Spin-orbit torque effect in silicon-based sputtered Mn3Sn film

Noncollinear antiferromagnet Mn3Sn has shown remarkable efficiency in charge-spin conversion,a novel magnetic spin Hall effect,and a stable topological antiferromagnetic state,which has resulted in great interest from researchers in the field of spin-orbit torque.Current research has primarily focused on the spin-orbit torque effect of epitaxially grown noncollinear antiferromagnet Mn3Sn films.However,this method is not suitable for large-scale industrial preparation.In this study,amorphous Mn3Sn films and Mn3Sn/Py heterostructures were prepared using magnetron sputtering on silicon substrates.The spin-torque ferromagnetic resonance measurement demonstrated that only the conventional spin-orbit torque effect generated by in-plane polarized spin currents existed in the Mn3Sn/Py heterostructure,with a spin-orbit torque efficiency of 0.016.Additionally,we prepared the perpendicular magnetized Mn3Sn/CoTb heterostructure based on amorphous Mn3Sn film,where the spin-orbit torque driven perpendicular magnetization switching was achieved with a lower critical switching current density(3.9 x 107 A/cm2)compared to Ta/CoTb heterostructure.This research reveals the spin-orbit torque effect of amorphous Mn3Sn films and establishes a foundation for further advancement in the practical application of Mn3Sn materials in spintronic devices.
