We present results of numerical calculations of domain-wall resistance in the ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)As. We employ Landauer-Buttiker formalism and the tight binding method. Taking into account the full valence band structure we…

Current-induced domain-wall motion with velocity spanning over five orders of magnitude up to 22 m/s has been observed by magneto-optical Kerr effect in (Ga,Mn)As with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. The data are employed to verify…

We develop a macroscopic description of the current-induced torque due to spin transfer in a layered system consisting of two ferromagnetic layers separated by a nonmagnetic layer. The description is based on i) the classical spin diffusion…

The shape instability of magnetic domain walls under current is investigated in a ferromagnetic (Ga,Mn)(As,P) film with perpendicular anisotropy. Domain wall motion is driven by the spin transfer torque mechanism. A current density gradient…

Current-driven magnetic domain wall motion is demonstrated in the quaternary ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)(As,P) at temperatures well below the ferromagnetic transition temperature, with critical currents of the order 10^5Acm^-2. This…

Phenomenological approach is developed in the theory of spin-valve type ferromagnetic junctions to describe exchange switching by current flowing perpendicular to interfaces. Forward and backward current switching effects are described and…

We study theoretically hole current-driven domain wall dynamics in (Ga,Mn)As. We show that the spin-orbit coupling causes significant hole reflection at the domain wall, even in the adiabatic limit when the wall is much thicker than the…

Theoretically, we study the dynamics of a current induced domain wall in the bi-layer structure consists of a ferromagnetic layer and a non-magnetic metal layer with strong spin-orbit coupling in the presence of spin-Hall effect. The…

Current-driven magnetization dynamics in ferromagnetic metals are studied in a self-consistent adiabatic local-density approximation in the presence of spin-conserving and spin-dephasing impurity scattering. Based on a quantum kinetic…

In ferromagnets, charge currents can excite magnons via the spin-orbit coupling. We develop a novel and general scattering theory of charge current induced macrospin magnetization torques in normal metal$|$ferromagnet$|$normal metal layers.…

The collective behavior of spins in a dilute magnetic semiconductor is determined by their mutual interactions and influenced by the underlying crystal structure. Hence, we begin with the atomic quantum-mechanical description of this system…

We have studied current-driven domain wall motion in modified Ga_0.95Mn_0.05As Hall bar structures with perpendicular anisotropy by using spatially resolved Polar Magneto-Optical Kerr Effect Microscopy and micromagnetic simulation.…

Spin transport equations in a non-homogeneous ferromagnet are derived in the limit where the sd exchange coupling between the electrons in the conduction band and those in the d band is dominant. It is shown that spin diffusion in…

We consider current-induced domain wall motion and, the reciprocal process, moving domain wall-induced current. The associated Onsager coefficients are expressed in terms of scattering matrices. Uncommonly, in (Ga,Mn)As, the effective…

We investigate spin-polarized inter-band tunneling through measurement of (Ga,Mn)As based Zener tunnel diode. By placing the diode under reverse bias, electron spin polarization is transferred from the valence band of p-type (Ga,Mn)As to…

The spin polarization of the electron current in a p-(Ga,Mn)As-n-(Al,Ga)As-Zener tunnel diode, which is embedded in a light-emitting diode, has been studied theoretically. A series of self-consistent simulations determines the charge…

The Landauer-Buettiker formalism combined with the tight-binding transfer matrix method is used to describe the results of recent experiments: the high tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) in (Ga,Mn)As-based trilayers and highly polarized spin…

We propose an effect whereby an electric current along the interface between a ferromagnetic and normal metal leads to injection of pure spin current into the normal metal, if the magnetization-direction in the ferromagnet varies along the…

The effective spin pressure induced by an electric current on a domain wall in a ferromagnet is determined using a simple classical model, which allows us to extend previous theories to arbitrary domain wall widths. In particular, the role…

We propose a magnetization reversal model to explain the perpendicular switching of a single ferromagnetic layer induced by an in-plane current. Contrary to previously proposed reversal mechanisms that such magnetic switching is directly…
