Heterostructures consisting of ferromagnets and heavy metals have become a focus of interest because their strong spin–orbit coupling allows for efficient current-induced magnetization switching phenomena. Now, a magnetically doped topological insulator bilayer is shown to display a range of appealing characteristics for current-induced magnetization switching, including a significantly enhanced efficiency.
