Spin transfer switching of spin valve nanopillars using nanosecond pulsed currents
Shehzaad Kaka, Matthew Pufall, William Rippard +4
Spin valve nanopillars are reversed via the mechanism of spin momentum transfer using current pulses applied perpendicular to the film plane of the device. The applied pulses were…
Thermal Effects on the Magnetic Field Dependence of Spin Transfer Induced Magnetization Reversal
D. Lacour, J. A. Katine, N. Smith +2
We have developed a self-aligned, high-yield process to fabricate CPP (current perpendicular to the plane) magnetic sensors of sub 100 nm dimensions. A pinned synthetic antiferroma…
Large-angle, gigahertz-rate random telegraph switching induced by spin-momentum transfer
Matthew R. Pufall, William H. Rippard, Shehzaad Kaka +4
We show that spin-polarized dc current passing through a small magnetic element induces two-state, random telegraph switching of the magnetization via the spin-momentum transfer ef…
Spin-Transfer Effects in Nanoscale Magnetic Tunnel Junctions
G. D. Fuchs, N. C. Emley, I. N. Krivorotov +7
We report measurements of magnetic switching and steady-state magnetic precession driven by spin-polarized currents in nanoscale magnetic tunnel junctions with low-resistance, < 5…
