We demonstrate highly efficient spin Hall nano-oscillators (SHNOs) based on NiFe/β-W bilayers. Thanks to the very high spin Hall angle of β-W, we achieve more than a 60% reduction in the auto-oscillation threshold current compared to NiFe/Pt bilayers. The structural, electrical, and magnetic properties of the bilayers, as well as the microwave signal generation properties of the SHNOs, have been studied in detail. Our results provide a promising path for the realization of low-current SHNO microwave devices with highly efficient spin-orbit torque from β-W.
