Symmetry and polarity of the voltage-controlled magnetic anisotropy studied by the Anomalous Hall effect

Abstract

The voltage-controlled magnetic anisotropy (VCMA) effect in FeB and FeB/W films was measured by four independent methods. All measurements are consistent and show the same tendency. The coercive field, Hall angle, anisotropy field, the magnetization switching time and retention time linearly decrease when the gate voltage increases and they linearly increase when the gate voltage decreases.
