Abstract

Abstract : Field‐Free Switching In article number 2211953, Tiejun Zhou, Wenjun Li, and co‐workers report that field‐free switching and high spin‐orbit torque efficiency are simultaneously achieved through the introduction of exchange field gradient into perpendicularly magnetized synthetic ferro‐ and antiferromagnets. The study provides new insights into field‐free switching of synthetic antiferromagnets and paves the way for memory and logical applications.
