Comparative measurements of inverse spin Hall effects and magnetoresistance in YIG/Pt and YIG/Ta

We report on a comparative study of spin Hall related effects and magnetoresistance in YIG$|$Pt and YIG$|$Ta bilayers. These combined measurements allow to estimate the characteristic transport parameters of both Pt and Ta layers juxtaposed to yttrium iron garnet (YIG): the spin mixing conductance $... View More
