Abstract
Antiferromagnetic spintronics is intrigued due to its unique properties that could break through the restrictions in ferromagnets. A 3d/5d transition metal oxide heterostructure is a good platform in antiferromagnetic spintronics research since the strong spin–orbit coupling in 5d oxides may bring about delicate interaction with the correlation energy and motivate unconventional phenomena. Here, the transport and magnetic characters of bilayers composed of antiferromagnetic 3d perovskite NdNiO3 and 5d perovskite SrIrO3 were investigated. The decreased metal–insulator transition and Néel temperature associated with suppressed negative magnetoresistance, emerged spin-glass like phenomenon, and the humped nonlinear Hall effect were observed in NdNiO3/SrIrO3 bilayers, which were absent in NdNiO3 and SrIrO3 pure films. It suggests the important role of interfacial interaction between NdNiO3 and SrIrO3 in modulating heterostructure transport and magnetic behavior and also manifests that complex magnetic structures might be realized in NdNiO3/SrIrO3 bilayers.
