Large Fluctuations and Singular Behavior of Nonequilibrium Systems
Daniele Pinna, Andrew D. Kent, Daniel L. Stein
We present a general geometrical approach to the problem of escape from a metastable state in the presence of noise. The accompanying analysis leads to a simple condition, based on…
Thermally-Assisted Spin-Transfer Torque Magnetization Reversal of Uniaxial Nanomagnets in Energy Space
D. Pinna, A. D. Kent, D. L. Stein
The asymptotic behavior of switching time as a function of current for a uniaxial macrospin under the effects of both spin-torque and thermal noise is explored analytically by focu…
Thermal Stability of the Magnetization in Perpendicularly Magnetized Thin Film Nanomagnets
Gabriel D. Chaves-OFlynn, Eric Vanden-Eijnden, D. L. Stein +1
Understanding the stability of thin film nanomagnets with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) against thermally induced magnetization reversal is important when designing perpe…
Annular Spin-Transfer Memory Element
Andrew D. Kent, Daniel L. Stein
An annular magnetic memory that uses a spin-polarized current to switch the magnetization direction or helicity of a magnetic region is proposed. The device has magnetic materials…
Determining the Energy Barrier for Decay out of Superdeformed Bands
B. R. Barrett, J. Bürki, D. M. Cardamone +2
An asymptotically exact quantum mechanical calculation of the matrix elements for tunneling through an asymmetric barrier is combined with the two-state statistical model for decay…
