Abstract
Oxide interfaces are a source of spin-orbit coupling which can lead to novel spin-to-charge conversion effects. In this Rapid Communication, the contribution of the interface to the anomalous Hall effect (AHE) of Co is experimentally studied in bilayers. We evidence a variation of ∼40% in the AHE of Co when a capping layer is added to the ferromagnet. This strong variation is attributed to an additional source of asymmetric transport in bilayers that originates from the interface and contributes to the skew scattering.
