  The interaction between superconductivity and ferromagnetism in thin film
superconductor/ferromagnet heterostructures is usually reflected by a change in
superconductivity of the S layer set by the magnetic state of the F layers.
Here we report the converse effect: transformation of the magnetocrystalline
anisotropy of a single Fe(001) layer, and thus its preferred magnetization
orientation, driven by the superconductivity of an underlying V layer through a
spin-orbit coupled MgO interface. We attribute this to an additional
contribution to the free energy of the ferromagnet arising from the controlled
generation of triplet Cooper pairs, which depends on the relative angle between
the exchange field of the ferromagnet and the spin-orbit field. This is
fundamentally different from the commonly observed magnetic domain modification
by Meissner screening or domain wall-vortex interaction and offers the ability
to fundamentally tune magnetic anisotropies using superconductivity - a key
step in designing future cryogenic magnetic memories.
