Spin-transfer-driven ferromagnetic resonance of individual nanomagnets.
We demonstrate a technique that enables ferromagnetic resonance measurements of the normal modes for magnetic excitations in individual nanoscale ferromagnets, smaller in volume by more than a factor of 50 compared to individual ferromagnetic samples measured by other resonance techniques. Studies of the resonance frequencies, amplitudes, linewidths, and line shapes as a function of microwave p...
متن کاملSpin-torque ferromagnetic resonance induced by the spin Hall effect.
We demonstrate that the spin Hall effect in a thin film with strong spin-orbit scattering can excite magnetic precession in an adjacent ferromagnetic film. The flow of alternating current through a Pt/NiFe bilayer generates an oscillating transverse spin current in the Pt, and the resultant transfer of spin angular momentum to the NiFe induces ferromagnetic resonance dynamics. The Oersted field...
متن کاملTime-resolved measurement of spin-transfer-driven ferromagnetic resonance and spin torque in magnetic tunnel junctions
The bias dependence of the torque that a spin-polarized current exerts on ferromagnetic elements is important for understanding fundamental spin physics in magnetic devices and for applications. Several experimental techniques have been introduced in recent years in attempts to measure spin-transfer torque in magnetic tunnel junctions. However, these techniques have provided only indirect measu...
متن کاملTorque-Detected Electron Spin Resonance as a Tool to Investigate Magnetic Anisotropy in Molecular Nanomagnets
The method of choice for in-depth investigation of the magnetic anisotropy in molecular nanomagnets is high-frequency electron spin resonance (HFESR) spectroscopy. It has the benefits of high resolution and facile access to large energy splittings. However, the sensitivity is limited to about 107 spins for a reasonable data acquisition time. In contrast, methods based on the measurement of the ...
متن کاملThermally assisted spin-transfer torque magnetization reversal in uniaxial nanomagnets
We simulate the stochastic Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert dynamics of a uniaxial nanomagnet out to sub-millisecond timescales using a graphical processing unit based micromagnetic code and determine the effect of geometrical tilts between the spin-current and uniaxial anisotropy axes on the thermally assisted reversal dynamics. The asymptotic behavior of the switching time (I ! 0; hsi / expð"nð1 " IÞÞ...
