Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We aim to develop a system that can evaluate spin orbit effects in thin film heterostructures using optical means. Through this project, we have developed an optical setup that can resolve extremely small changes of the magneto-optical signal that enables optical detection spin orbit torque and spin accumulation. We have also demonstrated optical detection of Rashba-type electronic structure at metallic interfaces using the photogalvanic effect.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
スピンホール角やスピントルク、ジャロシンスキー・守谷相互作用の大きさはスピン軌道効果をデバイスに応用する上での最重要パラメータであり、精緻な計測技術が必要不可欠である。本研究で構築した光解析技術により、スピン蓄積やスピン軌道トルク、界面の電子構造を精密に評価できることが明らかになった。今後はこの技術を利用して、様々な物質におけるスピン軌道効果を調査し、その起源解明に迫る。
