Abstract

<p>The spin Hall effect (SHE) refers to the generation of a spin current from an electric current due to the spin-orbit scattering in a solid. This effect has been predicted to allow the electric control of magnetization dynamics in a magnetic film. The inverse process of SHE (ISHE), namely, the generation of an electric current from a spin current, can directly be applied to the electric detection of a spin current in a solid. We demonstrate these functions of SHE and ISHE using a Ni81Fe19/Pt film, a simple system in which an electric current couples with a spin current and spin dynamics. SHE and ISHE are considered essential in combining spintronics and conventional electronics.</p>
