Control of magnetic anisotropy (MA) by gate electric field (EG) has a great deal of attention in terms of ultralow power information writing method in magnetic random access memory. In 3d-ferromagnetic metal/oxide systems, which has been mainly investigated, the efficiency of MA modulation by EG is 1-2 orders smaller than the values required for the application. Recently, our group has reported that in the sample with inserting a few monolayer Pd between the Co and MgO layers the electric field modulation of MA using an ionic liquid gating is largely enhanced at low temperature. The proximity-induced magnetic moment in the Pd layer is considered to be relevant to that. Here, we investigated the electric field effect in Co/Pt/oxide system, where the induced moment exists in the Pt layer, using a solid state gating.
