Article Description

The interfaces between superconductors and ferromagnets serve as a nurturing environment for spin-triplet superconducting pairs, where their spins align with the ferromagnetic moments, enabling the conduction of non-dissipative spin-polarized supercurrents that hold immense potential for spintronics applications and scientific advancements. In this study, we explore the spin-triplet superconductivity and the non-dissipative spin-polarized current in the YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7 (YBCO)/La 0.67 Sr 0.33 MnO 3 (LSMO) bilayers with X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD). The induced Cu moment at the interfaces exhibits three distinct alignment states: antiparallel, perpendicular, and parallel to the net moment of the LSMO ferromagnetic layer. Remarkably, the in-plane superconducting critical current experiences a sudden enhancement and displays a slower decaying trend to the applied magnetic field when the Cu-moment undergoes a transition from the antiparallel to the perpendicular state with respect to the LSMO magnetization. These findings shed light on the manipulation of induced Cu moments at interfaces, providing valuable insights for controlling spin-triplet states and enhancing non-dissipative spin-polarized supercurrents.
