Abstract

We report the experimental observation of mutual synchronization of magnetic nanooscillators driven by pure spin current generated by nonlocal spin injection. We show that the oscillators efficiently synchronize due to the direct spatial overlap of the dynamical modes excited by spin current, which is facilitated by the large size of the auto-oscillation area inherent to these devices. The synchronization occurs within an interval of the driving current determined by the competition between the dynamic nonlinearity that facilitates synchronization, and the short-wavelength magnetic fluctuations enhanced by the spin current that suppress synchronization. The demonstrated synchronization effects can be utilized to control the spatial and spectral characteristics of the dynamical states induced by spin currents.
