Abstract
High interfacial transparency is vital to achieve efficient spin-charge conversion for ideal spintronic devices with low energy consumption. However, in traditional ferromagnetic/nonmagnetic heterojunctions, the interfacial Rashba spin-orbit coupling brings about spin memory loss (SML) and two-magnon scattering (TMS), quenching spin current crossing the heterointerfaces. To address the intrinsic deficiency of heterointerface, we design a ferromagnetic FeRh/antiferromagnetic FeRh spin homojunction for efficient spin-charge conversion, verified by a high interfacial transparency of 0.75 and a high spin torque efficiency of 0.34 from spin pumping measurements. First-principles calculations demonstrate that the interfacial electric field of homojunction is two orders of magnitude smaller than that of traditional heterojunction, producing negligible interfacial spin-orbit coupling to drastically reduce SML and TMS. Our spin homojunction exhibits potential and enlightenment for future energy-efficient spintronic devices.
