  When a flow of electron passes through a paramagnetic layer with strong
spin-orbit-coupling such as platinum (Pt), a net spin current is produced via
spin Hall effect (SHE). This spin current can exert a torque on the
magnetization of an adjacent ferromagnetic layer which can be probed via
magnetization dynamic response, e.g. spin-torque ferromagnetic resonance
(ST-FMR). Nevertheless, that effect in lower frequency magnetization dynamic
regime (MHz) where skin effect occurs in high permeability ferromagnetic
conductors namely the magneto-impedance (MI) effect can be fundamentally
important which has not been studied so far. Here, by utilizing the MI effect
in magnetic-ribbon/Pt heterostructure with high magnetic permeability that
allows the ac current effectively confined at the skin depth of ~100 nm
thickness, the effect of spin-orbit-torque (SOT) induced by the SHE probed via
MI measurement is investigated. We observed a systematic MI frequency shift
that increases by increasing the applied current amplitude and thickness of the
Pt layer (varying from 0 nm to 20 nm). In addition, the role of Pt layer in
ribbon/Pt heterostructure is evaluated with ferromagnetic resonance (FMR)
effect representing standard Gilbert damping increase as the result of presence
of the SHE. Our results unveil the role of SOT in dynamic control of the
transverse magnetic permeability probed with impedance spectroscopy as useful
and valuable technique for detection of future SHE devices.
