Fundamental limits in heat assisted magnetic recording and methods to overcome it with exchange spring structures

Dieter Suess, Christoph Vogler, Claas Abert +3

The switching probability of magnetic elements for heat assisted recording is investigated. It is found that FePt elements with a diameter of 5 nm and a height of 10nm show, at a f…

NBTI in Nanoscale MOSFETs - The Ultimate Modeling Benchmark

Tibor Grasser, Karina Rott, Hans Reisinger +3

After nearly half a century of research into the bias temperature instability (BTI), two classes of models have emerged as the strongest contenders: one class of models, the reacti…

Ab-initio friction forces on the nanoscale: A DFT study of fcc Cu(111)

Michael Wolloch, Gregor Feldbauer, Peter Mohn +2

While there are a number of models that tackle the problem of calculating friction forces on the atomic level, providing a completely parameter-free approach remains a challenge. H…

Anomalous diameter dependence of thermal transport in ultra-narrow Si nanowires

Hossein Karamitaheri, Neophytos Neophytou, Hans Kosina

We present atomistic valence force field calculations of thermal transport in Si nanowires of diameters from 12nm down to 1nm. We show that as the diameter is reduced, the phonon d…
