From: The central role of tilted anisotropy for field-free spin–orbit torque switching of perpendicular magnetization

Fig. 6

a, b Longitudinal (Hx) and transverse (Hy) field dependence of the DL-SOT-induced loop shift per current (\({\boldsymbol{\triangle }}{H}_{{\rm{sw}}}/I\)) of the \({\theta }_{{\rm{dep}}}=0^\circ\) and \({\theta }_{{\rm{dep}}}=40^\circ\) devices. The applied current is set at \(\pm 6.5{\rm{mA}}\). c, d Hx dependence of SOT switching behavior (switching phase diagram) for both types of devices with a channel width of \(10{\rm{\mu }}{\rm{m}}\). The gray-slash regions correspond to the zones that cannot achieve full switching.
