Abstract
- Antiferromagnetic spintronics offers the potential for higher-frequency operations compared to ferromagnetic spintronics and improved insensitivity to magnetic fields. However, previous electrical techniques to detect antiferromagnetic dynamics have required millimeter-scale samples to achieve measurable signals. Here we demonstrate direct electrical detection of antiferromagnetic resonance in devices 1000 times smaller using spin-filter tunneling in micron-scale PtTe$_2$/bilayer CrSBr/graphite junctions in which the tunnel barrier is the van der Waals antiferromaget CrSBr. This sample geometry allows not only efficient detection, but also electrical control of the antiferromagnetic resonance through spin-orbit torque from the PtTe$_2$ electrode. The ability to efficiently detect and control antiferromagnetic resonance provides the means to make detailed studies of the physics governing these high-frequency dynamics and to pursue applications including radiation sources, modulators, and detectors.
