Electrical Determination of Magnetization Switching in In-plane Anisotropy Spin-orbit Systems

Electrical determination of magnetization switching is essential in the development of spintronics devices. However, for in-plane magnetic anisotropic systems, electrical readout of magnetization is challenging on simple Hall bar devices. Here, we propose a simple method based on DC measurement to probe magnetization switching on the spin-orbit Hall bar devices. The observed resistance-field relation is highly coincidental with the magnetic hysteresis loop measured at sheet films. Our result provides an effective method to evaluate the magnetization switching of the in-plane anisotropic systems on the Hall bar devices.
