Abstract:
We investigate anomalous spin and orbital Hall phenomena in antiferromagnetic materials via orbital pumping experiments. Conducting spin and orbital pumping experiments on YIG/Pt/Ir_{20}Mn_{80} heterostructures, we unexpectedly observe strong spin and orbital anomalous signals in an out-of-plane configuration. We report a sevenfold increase in the signal of the anomalous inverse orbital Hall effect compared to conventional effects. Our study suggests expanding the orbital Hall angle (θ_{OH}) to a rank 3 tensor, akin to the spin Hall angle (θ_{SH}), to explain the anomalous inverse orbital Hall effect. This work pioneers converting spin-orbital currents into charge currents, advancing the spin-orbitronics domain in antiferromagnetic materials.
