Gigantic magnetic-field-induced polarization and magnetoelectric coupling in a ferrimagnetic oxide CaBaCo 4 O 7

Below Tc, the single-crystal study of CaBaCo40,, a noncollinear ferrimagnet (Tc = 64 K) with a polar orthorhombic space group (Pbn21) between 4 and 293 K, shows a large change inthe electric polarization along its c axis reaching !!iP = 17 mC/m2 at 10 K. At 62.5 K, a magnetic-field-driven giant variation inpolarization P(9 T) - P(O T) = 8 mC/m2 is observed. Moreover, the present magnetoelectric measurements are fully consistent withthe m'm2' magnetic point group. This ferrimagnetic oxide, which belongs to the "114" structural family, opens an avenue for the search for new magnetoelectrics.

Interface-driven spin-torque ferromagnetic resonance by Rashba coupling at the interface between nonmagnetic materials

The Rashba-Edelstein effect stems from the interaction between the electron's spin and its momentum induced by spin-orbit interaction at an interface or a surface. It was shown that the inverse Rashba-Edelstein effect can be used to convert a spin current into a charge current. Here, we demonstrate the reverse process of a charge-to spin-current conversion at a Bi/Ag Rashba interface. We show that this interface-driven spin current can drive an adjacent ferromagnet to resonance. We employ a spin-torque ferromagnetic resonance excitation/detection scheme which was developed originally for a bulk spin-orbital effect, the spin Hall effect. In our experiment, the direct Rashba-Edelstein effect generates an oscillating spin current from an alternating charge current driving the magnetization precession in a neighboring permalloy (Py, Ni 80 Fe 20 ) layer. As a result, electrical detection of the magnetization dynamics is achieved by a rectificationmechanism of the time dependent multilayer resistance arising from the anisotropic magnetoresistance.
