Abstract

Under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License to their work.<br />We show here that using spin orbit coupling interactions at a metallic interface it is possible to control the sign of the spin to charge conversion in a spin pumping experiment. Using the intrinsic symmetry of the “Inverse Rashba Edelstein Effect” (IREE) in a Bi/Ag interface, the charge current changes sign when reversing the order of the Ag and Bi stacking. This confirms the IREE nature of the conversion of spin into charge in these interfaces and opens the way to tailoring the spin sensing voltage by an appropriate trilayer sequence.<br />We would like to acknowledge financial support from the European Commission through the Marie Curie Intra European Fellowship Project No. 301656: AtomicFMR, funded by the 7th Framework Programme. This work was supported by Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitivity through Project No. MAT2011-27553-C02, including FEDER funds, and by the Aragon Regional Government.
