Temperature Dependent Spin Dynamics in La_0.67Sr_0.33MnO₃/Pt Bilayers

Abstract Complex ferromagnetic oxides such as La_0.67Sr_0.33MnO₃ (LSMO) offer pathways for creating energy‐efficient spintronic devices with new functionalities. LSMO exhibits high‐temperature ferromagnetism, half metallicity, sharp resonance linewidth, low damping, and a large anisotropic magnetoresistance response. Combined with Pt, a proven material with high spin‐charge conversion efficiency, LSMO can be used to create robust nano‐oscillators for neuromorphic computing. Ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) and device‐level spin‐pumping FMR measurements are performed to investigate the magnetization dynamics and spin transport in NdGaO₃(110)/LSMO(15 nm)/Pt(0 and 5 nm) thin films ranging from 300 K to 90 K and compare the device performance with Py(7 nm)/Pt(5 nm) sample. The spin current pumped into Pt is quantified to determine the temperature‐dependent influence of interfacial interactions. The generated spin current in the micro‐device is maximum at 170 K for the optimally grown LSMO/Pt films. Additionally, this bilayer system exhibits low magnetic Gilbert damping (0.002), small linewidth (12 Oe), and a large spin Hall angle (≈3.2%) at 170 K. Ex situ deposited LSMO/Pt bilayers demonstrate excellent dynamic response, exhibiting fourfold enhancement in signal output, eightfold reduction in damping, and a threefold reduction in linewidth as compared to the Pt/Py system. Such robust device‐level performance can pave way for energy‐efficient spintronic‐based devices.
