Spin-orbit-torque(SOT) devices have acquired extensive attention for their unique features, encompassing low power consumption and efficient data storage capabilities. Recent discoveries of the Orbital Hall Effect and the Orbital Rashba-Edelstein Effect have added more intricacy to the understanding of magnetization switching mechanisms in these devices, especially in Nonmagnetic/Ferromagnet systems. To address this, we present a model for a Pt/Co bilayer system where we utilized Atomistic Spin Dynamics simulations, incorporating ab-initio calculated interaction parameters mapped to the Hamiltonian and electrically induced moments from first-principles calculations. Our descriptive model reveals the Spin and Orbital Hall Effect as the dominant mechanism behind magnetization switching in Pt/Co at low electric field strengths. Conversely, there is a significant magnetization dependence of the interface-generated moments at high field, leading to counterintuitive anti-switching behaviour with enhanced layer-resolved behavior in the presence of orbital moments.
