Field-free spin-orbit torque-induced switching of perpendicular magnetization in a ferrimagnetic layer with vertical composition gradient
Zhenyi Zheng, Yue Zhang, Victor Lopez-Dominguez +15
Current-induced spin-orbit torques (SOTs) are of interest for fast and energy-efficient manipulation of magnetic order in spintronic devices. To be deterministic, however, switchin…
All-optical helicity-independent switching state diagram in GdFeCo alloys
Jiaqi Wei, Boyu Zhang, Michel Hehn +5
Ultra-fast magnetization switching induced by a single femtosecond laser pulse, under no applied magnetic field has attracted a lot of attention during the last 10 years because of…
Current-induced spin torques on single GdFeCo magnetic layers
David Céspedes-Berrocal, Heloïse Damas, Sébastien Petit-Watelot +16
Spintronics exploits spin-orbit coupling (SOC) to generate spin currents, spin torques, and, in the absence of inversion symmetry, Rashba, and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions (D…
Magnetization reversal more rapidly by using an ultrashort square-wave laser pulse
Xiaoqiang Zhang, Yong Xu, Weisheng Zhao
With the feature of low-power magnetization manipulation at an ultrashort time scale, all optical switching (AOS) has been propelled to the forefront in investigations. To further…
Domain-wall motion induced by spin transfer torque delivered by helicity-dependent femtosecond laser
Boyu Zhang, Yong Xu, Weisheng Zhao +8
In magnetic wires with perpendicular anisotropy, moving domain with only current or only circularly polarized light requires a high power. Here, we propose to reduce it by using bo…
Energy-efficient domain wall motion governed by the interplay of helicity-dependent optical effect and spin-orbit torque
Boyu Zhang, Yong Xu, Weisheng Zhao +6
Spin-orbit torque provides a powerful means of manipulating domain walls along magnetic wires. However, the current density required for domain wall motion is still too high to rea…
