Field-free spin-orbit torque switching enabled by interlayer Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction

Wenqing He, Caihua Wan, Cuixiu Zheng +12

Perpendicularly magnetized structures that are switchable using a spin current under field-free conditions can potentially be applied in spin-orbit torque magnetic random-access me…

Parametric Auto-Excitation of Magnetic Droplet Soliton Perimeter Modes

D. Xiao, V. Tiberkevich, Y. H. Liu +7

Recent experiments performed in current-driven nano-contacts with strong perpendicular anisotropy have shown that spin-transfer torque can drive self-localized spin waves [1, 2] th…

Merging droplets in double nano-contact spin torque oscillators

Dun Xiao, Yaowen Liu, Y. Zhou +3

We demonstrate how magnetic droplet soliton pairs, nucleated by two separated nano-contact (NC) spin torque oscillators, can merge into a single droplet soliton. A detailed descrip…

All-magnetic control of skyrmions in nanowires by a spin wave

Xichao Zhang, Motohiko Ezawa, Dun Xiao +3

Magnetic skyrmions are topologically protected nanoscale objects, which are promising building blocks for novel magnetic and spintronic devices. Here, we investigate the dynamics o…

Electrical current-driven pinhole formation and insulator-metal transition in tunnel junctions

J. Ventura, Z. Zhang, Y. Liu +2

Current Induced Resistance Switching (CIS) was recently observed in thin tunnel junctions (TJs) with ferromagnetic (FM) electrodes and attributed to electromigration of metallic at…

Nanoscopic processes of Current Induced Switching in thin tunnel junctions

J. Ventura, J. P. Araujo, J. B. Sousa +3

In magnetic nanostructures one usually uses a magnetic field to commute between two resistance (R) states. A less common but technologically more interesting alternative to achieve…
