Thermally-Activated Magnetic Reversal Induced by a Spin-Polarized Current
E. B. Myers, F. J. Albert, J. C. Saneky +3
We have measured the statistical properties of magnetic reversal in nanomagnets driven by a spin-polarized current. Like reversal induced by a magnetic field, spin-transfer-driven…
The Role of Spin-Dependent Interface Scattering in Generating Current-Induced Torques in Magnetic Multilayers
Xavier Waintal, Edward B. Myers, Piet W. Brouwer +1
We present a calculation of current-induced torques in metallic magnetic multilayers derived from the spin-dependent transmission and reflection properties of the magnetic layers.…
Current-driven Magnetization Reversal and Spin Wave Excitations in Co/Cu/Co Pillars
J. A. Katine, F. J. Albert, R. A. Buhrman +2
Using thin film pillars ~100 nm in diameter, containing two ferromagnetic Co layers of different thicknesses separated by a paramagnetic Cu spacer, we examine effects of torques du…
Tunneling Via Individual Electronic States in Ferromagnetic Nanoparticles
S. Gueron, Mandar M. Deshmukh, E. B. Myers +1
We measure electron tunneling via discrete energy levels in ferromagnetic cobalt particles less than 4 nm in diameter, using non-magnetic electrodes. Due to magnetic anisotropy, th…
