We experimentally investigate the current-induced magnetization reversal in Pt/[Co/Ni](3)/Al multilayers combining the anomalous Hall effect and magneto-optical Kerr effect techniques in crossbar geometry. The magnetization reversal occurs through nucleation and propagation of a domain of opposite polarity for a current density of the order of 3 x 10(11) A/m(2). In these experiments, we demonstrate a full control of each stage: (i) the Orsted field controls the domain nucleation and (ii) domain-wall propagation occurs by spin torque from the Pt spin Hall effect. This scenario requires an in-plane magnetic field to tune the domain wall center orientation along the current for efficient domain wall propagation. Indeed, as nucleated, domain walls are chiral and Neel-like due to the interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction. (C) 2016 AIP Publishing LLC.
