Abstract

This spin element includes: a current-carrying part that extends in a first direction; and an element part that is laminated on one surface of the current-carrying part, wherein the current-carrying part includes a first wiring and a second wiring in order from a side of the element part, and wherein both of the first wiring and the second wiring are metals and temperature dependence of resistivity of the first wiring is larger than temperature dependence of resistivity of the second wiring in at least a temperature range of −40° C. to 100° C.

Claims (14)

1. A spin element comprising:

a current-carrying part that extends in a first direction; and

an element part that faces the current-carrying part,

wherein the current-carrying part includes a first wiring and a second wiring in order from a side of the element part, and

wherein the first wiring is a metal and the second wiring is a topological insulator.

2. The spin element according to claim 1 ,

wherein the current-carrying part is a spin-orbit torque wiring configured to apply a spin-orbit torque to magnetization of the first ferromagnetic layer so as to rotate the magnetization of the first ferromagnetic layer, and

wherein the element part includes a first ferromagnetic layer.

3. The spin element according to claim 1 ,

wherein the current-carrying part is a spin-orbit torque wiring configured to apply a spin-orbit torque to magnetization of the first ferromagnetic layer so as to rotate the magnetization of the first ferromagnetic layer, and

wherein the element part includes a first ferromagnetic layer, a non-magnetic layer, and a second ferromagnetic layer in order from a position near the current-carrying part.

4. The spin element according to claim 1 ,

wherein the current-carrying part is a magnetic recording layer including a magnetic domain wall, and

wherein the element part includes a non-magnetic layer and a first ferromagnetic layer in order from a position near the magnetic recording layer.
