摘要：The emergent two-dimensional (2D) ferromagnetic materials with unique magnetic properties have endowed great potential for next-generation spintronic devices with extraordinary merits of high flexibility, easy controllability, and high heretointegrability, which is expected to promote the development of Moore's Law continuously. However, it is extremely challenging to realize magnetic switching with ultra-low power consumption at room temperature. Here, we demonstrate the room-temperature spin-orbit torque (SOT) driven magnetization switching in a well-epitaxial all-van der Waals (vdW) heterostructure. The topological insulator Bi2Te3 not only helps to elevate the Curie temperature of Fe3GeTe2 (FGT) through interfacial exchange coupling but also works as a spin current source allowing to switch FGT at a low current density of 2.2 * 106 A cm2. A large SOT efficiency of 0.7 is measured at room temperature, and the thickness of FGT is further adjusted to reduce the influence of the thermal contribution on the second-harmonic signal. Furthermore, the temperature and thickness-dependent SOT efficiency prove that the large SOT in our system mainly originates from the nontrivial origin of topological materials. Our experiment has enabled an all-vdW SOT structure and lays a solid foundation for the implementation of room-temperature all-vdW spintronic devices in the future.
