Japanese researchers discover new Hall effect in ultrathin ferromagnetic oxide films

phys.org

Japanese researchers discovered a new Hall effect in ultrathin ferromagnetic oxide films, challenging a century-old assumption about magnetization direction. The effect arises from in-plane magnetization in SrRuO3 films, driven by spin-orbit coupling, and offers new ways to manipulate electron transport. This finding has potential applications in advanced sensors, quantum materials, and spintronic technologies, redefining our understanding of the Hall effect.
