Current-induced magnetization switching in MgO barrier magnetic tunnel junctions with CoFeB based synthetic ferrimagnetic free layers
Jun Hayakawa, Shoji Ikeda, Katsuya Miura +12
We investigated the effect of using a synthetic ferrimagnetic (SyF) free layer in MgO-based magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) on current-induced magnetization switching (CIMS), part…

Sub-ns spin-transfer switching: compared benefits of free layer biasing and pinned layer biasing
T. Devolder, C. Chappert, K. Ito
We analyze the statistical distribution of switching durations in spin-transfer switching induced by current steps, and discuss biasing strategies to enhance the reproducibility of…

Distribution of the magnetization reversal duration in sub-ns spin-transfer switching
T. Devolder, C. Chappert, J. A. Katine +2
We study the distribution of switching times in spin-transfer switching induced by sub-ns current pulses in pillar-shaped spin-valves. The pulse durations leading to switching foll…
