We investigate spin pumping phenomena in polycrystalline CoFeB/Pt and CoFeB/Ta bilayers and the correlation between the effective spin-mixing conductance g(eff)(up down arrow) and the obtained voltages generated by the spin-to-charge current conversion via the inverse spin Hall effect in the Pt and Ta layers. For this purpose, we measure the in-plane angular dependence of the generated voltages on the external static magnetic field and we apply a model to separate the spin pumping signal from the one generated by the spin rectification effect in the magnetic layer. Our results reveal a dominating role of anomalous Hall effect for the spin rectification effect with CoFeB and a lack of correlation between g(eff)(up down arrow) and inverse spin Hall voltages pointing to a strong role of the magnetic proximity effect in Pt in understanding the observed increased damping. This is additionally reflected on the presence of a linear dependency of the Gilbert damping parameter on the Pt thickness.
