We demonstrate the strong impact of the oscillator agility on the line broadening by studying spin transfer induced microwave emission in MgO-based tunnel junctions with current. The linewidth is almost not affected by decreasing the…
Spin transfer driven excitations in magnetic nanostructures are characterized by a relatively large microwave emission linewidth (10 -100 MHz). Here we investigate the role of thermal fluctuations as well as of the non-linear…
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 lines, down to 8 MHz in width at a frequency of 10.7 GHz,…
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 direct experimental measure of the coupling between the power…
We measure the power spectral density of frequency fluctuations in nanocontact spin torque oscillators over time scales up to 50 ms. We use a mixer to convert oscillator signals ranging from 10 GHz to 40 GHz into a band near 70 MHz before…
We study the current controlled modulation of a nano-contact spin torque oscillator. Three principally different cases of frequency non-linearity ($d^{2}f/dI^{2}_{dc}$ being zero, positive, and negative) are investigated. Standard…
We measure oscillator phase from the zero crossings of the voltage vs. time waveform of a spin torque nanocontact oscillating in a vortex mode. The power spectrum of the phase noise varies with Fourier frequency $f$ as $1/f^2$, consistent…
The correlation of phase fluctuations in any type of oscillator fundamentally defines its spectral shape. However, in nonlinear oscillators, such as spin torque nano oscillators, the frequency spectrum can become particularly complex. This…
We present a detailed study of the spin-torque diode effect in CoFeB/MgO/CoFe/NiFe magnetic tunnel junctions. From the evolution of the resonance frequency with magnetic field at different angles, we clearly identify the free-layer mode and…
We present a study of the spin transfer torque oscillator based on CoFeB/MgO/CoFeB asymmetric magnetic tunnel junctions. We observe microwave precession in junctions with different thickness of the free magnetization layer. Taking advantage…
It is shown that the generation linewidth of an auto-oscillator with a nonlinear frequency shift (i.e. an auto-oscillator in which frequency depends on the oscillation amplitude) is substantially larger than the linewidth of a conventional…
We present a stochastic theory of linewidths for magnetization oscillations in spin-valve structures driven by spin-polarized currents. Starting from a nonlinear oscillator model derived from spin-wave theory, we derive Langevin equations…
The non-linear parameters of spin-torque oscillators based on a synthetic ferrimagnet free layer (two coupled layers) are computed. The analytical expressions are compared to macrospin simulations in the case of a synthetic ferrimagnet…
This paper describes a numerical experiment, based on full micromagnetic simulations of current-driven magnetization dynamics in nanoscale spin valves, to identify the origins of spectral linewidth broadening in spin torque oscillators. Our…
We use spin-transfer-driven ferromagnetic resonance (ST-FMR) to measure the spin-transfer torque vector T in MgO-based magnetic tunnel junctions as a function of the offset angle between the magnetic moments of the electrodes and as a…
We report first-principles analysis on the bias dependence of spin-transfer torque (STT) in Fe/MgO/Fe magnetic tunnel junctions. The in-plane STT changes from linear to nonlinear dependence as the bias voltage is increased from zero. The…
We study the behavior of the linewidth of a nano-contact based spin torque oscillator (STO) under application of a radio frequency (100 MHz) modulating current. We achieve a significant (up to 85%) reduction of the STO linewidth when it is…
Here, we present an analytical and numerical model describing the magnetization dynamics in MgO-based spin-torque nano-oscillators with an in-plane magnetized polarizer and an out-of-plane free layer. We introduce the spin-transfer torque…
We observe both dc voltage rectification and frequency conversion that occur when a reference microwave current is injected to a MgO based magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ). The rectification that is spin-transfer torque dependent is observed…
Frequency modulation experiments were performed on a spin torque vortex oscillator for a wide range of modulation frequency, up to 10 % of the oscillator frequency. A thorough analysis of the intermodulation products shows that the key…
