abstract = {Current-induced spin-orbit torques (SOTs) allow for the
efficient electrical manipulation of magnetism in spintronic
devices. Engineering the SOT efficiency is a key goal that
is pursued by maximizing the active interfacial spin
accumulation or modulating the nonequilibrium spin density
that builds up through the spin Hall and inverse spin
galvanic effects. Regardless of the origin, the fundamental
requirement for the generation of the current-induced
torques is a net spin accumulation. We report on the large
enhancement of the SOT efficiency in thulium iron garnet
(TmIG)/Pt by capping with a CuOx layer. Considering the weak
spin-orbit coupling (SOC) of CuOx, these surprising findings
likely result from an orbital current generated at the
interface between CuOx and Pt, which is injected into the Pt
layer and converted into a spin current by strong SOC. The
converted spin current decays across the Pt layer and exerts
a “nonlocal” torque on TmIG. This additional torque
leads to a maximum colossal enhancement of the SOT
efficiency of a factor 16 for 1.5 nm of Pt at room
temperature, thus opening a path to increase torques while
at the same time offering insights into the underlying
physics of orbital transport, which has so far been
elusive.},
