We report electrical current switching of noncollinear antiferromagnetic (AFM) Mn3GaN/Pt bilayers at room temperature. The Hall resistance of these bilayers can be manipulated by applying a pulse current of 1.5x10(6) A/cm(2), whereas no significant change is observed up to similar to 10(8) A/cm(2) in Mn3GaN single films, indicating that the Pt layer plays an important role. In comparison with ferrimagnetic Mn3GaN/Pt bilayers, a lower electrical current switching of noncollinear AFM Mn3GaN is demonstrated, with a critical current density two orders of magnitude smaller. Our results highlight that a combination of a noncollinear AFM antiperovskite nitride and a spin-torque technique is a good platform for AFM spintronics.
