Abstract We present a method to directly obtain the pure inverse spin Hall effect (ISHE) signal without the spin rectification effect (SRE) signal in ferromagnetic metal(FM)/nonmagnetic metal(NM) bilayers. This method is based on a fact that the distribution of the induced microwave current is largely dependent on the geometries of the samples. The ISHE signal can be maximized through shaping the samples and tuning the magnetic field directions, while the SRE signal can be minimized below the detection limit. This provides also a fast and simplified method to measure the ISHE signal in a wide frequency range. The spin Hall angle of Ta in a Py/Ta bilayer is −0.027 ± 0.015 in a wide frequency range.
