Enhanced Resolution of Poly-(Methyl Methacrylate) Electron Resist by Thermal Processing

Nima Arjmandi, Liesbet Lagae, Gustaaf Borghs

Granular nanostructure of electron beam resist had limited the ultimate resolution of electron beam lithography. We report a thermal process to achieve a uniform and homogeneous am…

Frequency shift keying in vortex-based spin torque oscillators

M. Manfrini, T. Devolder, Joo-Von Kim +4

Vortex-based spin-torque oscillators can be made from extended spin valves connected to an electrical nanocontact. We study the implementation of frequency shift keying modulation…

Direct experimental measurement of phase-amplitude coupling in spin torque oscillators

L. Bianchini, S. Cornelissen, Joo-Von Kim +4

We study spin-torque induced oscillations of MgO magnetic tunnel junctions in the time domain. By using the Hilbert transform on the time traces, we obtain for the first time a dir…

Current-driven vortex oscillations in metallic nanocontacts: Zero-field oscillations and training effects

M. van Kampen, L. Lagae, G. Hrkac +4

We present an experimental and theoretical study of the low-field dynamics of current-driven vortex oscillations in nanocontacts based on spin-valve multilayers. These oscillations…

Auto-oscillation threshold, narrow spectral lines, and line jitter in spin-torque oscillators based on MgO magnetic tunnel junctions

T. Devolder, S. Cornelissen, L. Bianchini +5

We demonstrate spin torque induced auto-oscillation in MgO-based magnetic tunnel junctions. At the generation threshold, we observe a strong line narrowing down to 6 MHz at 300K an…

Auto-oscillation threshold and line narrowing in MgO-based spin-torque oscillators

S. Cornelissen, L. Bianchini, G. Hrkac +7

We present an experimental study of the power spectrum of current-driven magnetization oscillations in MgO tunnel junctions under low bias. We find the existence of narrow spectral…

Current-driven vortex oscillations in metallic nanocontacts

Q. Mistral, M. van Kampen, G. Hrkac +6

We present experimental evidence of sub-GHz spin-transfer oscillations in metallic nano-contacts that are due to the translational motion of a magnetic vortex. The vortex is shown…

Spatially resolved ultrafast precessional magnetization reversal

W. K. Hiebert, L. Lagae, J. De Boeck

Spatially resolved measurements of quasi-ballistic precessional magnetic switching in a microstructure are presented. Crossing current wires allow detailed study of the precessiona…
