A review of modelling in ferrimagnetic spintronics

Abstract

In this review we introduce computer modelling and simulation techniques which are used for ferrimagnetic materials. We focus on models where thermal effects are accounted for, atomistic spin dynamics and finite temperature macrospin approaches. We survey the literature of two of the most commonly modelled ferrimagnets in the field of spintronics--the amorphous alloy GdFeCo and the magnetic insulator yttrium iron garnet. We look at how generic models and material specific models have been applied to predict and understand spintronic experiments, focusing on the fields of ultrafast magnetisation dynamics, spincaloritronics and magnetic textures dynamics and give an outlook for modelling in ferrimagnetic spintronics.
