Abstract
We investigated the magnetic proximity effect (MPE) as well as the unidirectional spin Hall magnetoresistance (USMR) and spin-orbit torques (SOTs) in heavy metal/Co/heavy metal trilayer systems compared to Pt/Co and Ta/Co bilayers. By using x-ray resonant magnetic reflectivity, we obtained magnetic depth profiles of the structural, optical and magnetic parameters, and studied the impact of the MPE in Pt on the total magnetic moment of the systems. A detailed analysis of harmonic longitudinal and Hall voltage measurements revealed enhanced SOTs and USMR in the trilayers that include a second heavy metal with the opposite sign of the spin Hall angle.
