Abstract(in English) Chalcogenide materials such as Sb_2Te_3 and Bi_2Te_3 are known as phase-change materials, which can reversely change their phases between crystalline and amorphous by electrical stimuli, and the resultant resistivity contrast is used for nonvolatile memory (phase-change memory: PCM). In addition, these materials are a representative topological insulator, where the presence of intrinsic strong spin-orbit coupling is expected to provide highly efficient charge to spin current conversion. In this study, we focused on the relationship between the crystalline structure (atomic alignment) and the spin characteristics. The bilayer samples consisting of ferromagnetic CoFeB and topological insulator Sb_2Te_3 were fabricated with different phases of Sb_2Te_3, and the magnetic relaxation constants were investigated by ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) measurements. Enhancement of the magnetic relaxation constant was observed for crystalline Sb_2Te_3 with thinning the layer thickness, while the amorphous sample showed the independent behavior on film thickness. These results support that the phase-changeable spintronic devices can be realized.
