Abstract

The spin Hall angle (SHA) is a measure of the efficiency for converting a charge to a spin current is still challenging to tune in situ. Here, the authors demonstrate by introducing a ferroelectric (FE) material in a ferromagnetic/heavy metal stack the SHA can be voltage controled via the polarization of the FE layer.
