| Zusammenfassung: | © 2023 The Authors. Advanced Materials published by Wiley-VCH GmbH. Nano-constriction based spin Hall nano-oscillators (SHNOs) are at the forefront of spintronics research for emerging technological applications, such as oscillator-based neuromorphic computing and Ising Machines. However, their miniaturization to the sub-50 nm width regime results in poor scaling of the threshold current. Here, it shows that current shunting through the Si substrate is the origin of this problem and studies how different seed layers can mitigate it. It finds that an ultra-thin Al2 O3 seed layer and SiN (200 nm) coated p-Si substrates provide the best improvement, enabling us to scale down the SHNO width to a truly nanoscopic dimension of 10 nm, operating at threshold currents below 30 μ $\umu$ A. In addition, the combination of electrical insulation and high thermal conductivity of the Al2 O3 seed will offer the best conditions for large SHNO arrays, avoiding any significant temperature gradients within the array. The state-of-the-art ultra-low operational current SHNOs hence pave an energy-efficient route to scale oscillator-based computing to large dynamical neural networks of linear chains or 2D arrays |
