Despite their great promise for providing a pathway for very efficient and fast manipulation of magnetization, spin-orbit torque (SOT) operations are currently energy inefficient due to a low damping-like SOT efficiency per unit current bias, and/or the very high resistivity of the spin Hall materials. This work reports an advantageous spin Hall material, Pd 1− x Pt x , which combines a low resistivity with a giant spin Hall effect as evidenced with three independent SOT ferromagnetic detectors. The optimal Pd 0.25 Pt 0.75 alloy has a giant internal spin Hall ratio of >0.60 (damping-like SOT efficiency of ≈0.26 for all three ferromagnets) and a low resistivity of ≈57.5 µΩ cm at a 4 nm thickness. Moreover, it is found that the Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya interaction (DMI), the key ingredient for the manipulation of chiral spin arrangements (e.g., magnetic skyrmions and chiral domain walls), is considerably strong at the Pd 1− x Pt x /Fe 0.6 Co 0.2 B 0.2 interface when compared to that at Ta/Fe 0.6 Co 0.2 B 0.2 or W/Fe 0.6 Co 0.2 B 0.2 interfaces and can be tuned by a factor of 5 through control of the interfacial spin-orbital coupling via the heavy metal composition. This work establishes a very effective spin current generator that combines a notably high energy efficiency with a very strong and tunable DMI for advanced chiral spintronics and spin torque applications. © 2019 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
