The spin Hall effect originating from 5d heavy transition‐metal thin films such as Pt, Ta, and W is able to generate efficient spin–orbit torques that can switch adjacent magnetic layers. This mechanism can serve as an alternative to conventional spin‐transfer torque for controlling next‐generation magnetic memories. Among all 5d transition metals, W in its resistive amorphous phase typically shows...
