Nonuniform switching of the perpendicular magnetization in a spin-torque-driven magnetic nanopillar
Time-resolved scanning transmission x-ray microscopy measurements were performed to study the currentinduced magnetization switching mechanism in nanopillars exhibiting strong perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. This technique provides both short-time (70 ps) and high-spatial (25 nm) resolutions. Direct imaging of the magnetization demonstrates that, after an incubation time of∼1.3 ns, a 100 × 3...
متن کاملMagnetization Dynamics Symmetry in Spin Torque Induced Magnetization Switching
Magnetization dynamics symmetry plays important roles in magnetization switching. Here we study magnetic field and spin torque induced magnetization switching. Spin moment transferring from polarized itinerant electrons to local magnetization provides a magnetization switching mechanism without using external magnetic field. Besides its importance in fundamental magnetization switching dynamics...
متن کاملSpin–orbit torque-assisted switching in magnetic insulator thin films with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy
As an in-plane charge current flows in a heavy metal film with spin-orbit coupling, it produces a torque on and thereby switches the magnetization in a neighbouring ferromagnetic metal film. Such spin-orbit torque (SOT)-induced switching has been studied extensively in recent years and has shown higher efficiency than switching using conventional spin-transfer torque. Here we report the SOT-ass...
متن کاملMagnetization switching by spin-orbit torque in an antiferromagnet-ferromagnet bilayer system.
Spin-orbit torque (SOT)-induced magnetization switching shows promise for realizing ultrafast and reliable spintronics devices. Bipolar switching of the perpendicular magnetization by the SOT is achieved under an in-plane magnetic field collinear with an applied current. Typical structures studied so far comprise a nonmagnet/ferromagnet (NM/FM) bilayer, where the spin Hall effect in the NM is r...
