The topological semimetal CrPt3 has potential for generating unconventional spin torques due to its ferrimagnetic ordering, topological band structure, and high anomalous Hall effect. CrPt3 exhibits ferrimagnetic behavior only in its chemically ordered phase and is paramagnetic in its chemically disordered phase. By controlling the growth and annealing temperatures, we prepare epitaxial films of both chemically ordered and chemically disordered phases of CrPt3, allowing us to investigate the effect of magnetic ordering on unconventional-torque generation. We use angle-dependent spin-torque-ferromagnetic-resonance and second-harmonic Hall measurements to probe the spin torques generated from epitaxial CrPt3 in CrPt3/Cu/Ni81Fe19 heterostructures. With current applied along specific directions with respect to the crystal order, we reveal unconventional spin torques in both ordered and disordered films. When current flows parallel to the [11¯1] and [1¯11] directions, we observe an unconventional fieldlike torque that is opposite in sign for the two directions. Our calculations reveal that this unconventional torque originates from an indirect nonlocal spin-orbit torque due to spin scattering at the CrPt3/Cu interface, in addition to symmetry breaking at this interface.
