The manipulation of spin–orbit torque (SOT) manifests enormous potentiality in the field of spintronics due to virtues of low power consumption, ultrafast spin-flips, and high-density integration. Increaser the spin hall angle of the spin source layer or the SOT efficiency are the key approaches of achieving low power spintronics. Here, we report an enhancement of spin–orbit torques in Ta/Co/Pt heterostructures using low-voltage ionic liquid gating. The effective spin Hall angle increased threefold with an applied voltage of 2 V. As expected, the enhanced spin Hall angle lowers the critical current density by 66.7% (1.14 × 107 to 3.80 × 106 A cm−2). By the lock-in harmonic Hall voltage measurements, the outstanding performance of manipulation of the spin–orbit coupling originates from the electrostatic doping interracially by the ionic liquid. In addition to the significant fundamentals, our work could be feasibly wielded toward the spintronics such as memory and logic devices in the behaviors of energy-efficient and impressive tunability.
