Effect of surface state hybridization on current-induced spin-orbit torque in thin topological insulator films

We investigate the thickness optimization for maximum current-induced spin-orbit torque (SOT) generated by topological surface states (TSS’s) in a bilayer system comprising of a ferromagnetic layer coupled to a thin topological insulator (TI) film. We show that by reducing the TI thickness, two comp...
