We develop a quantum analog of the classical spin-torque model for current-driven magnetic dynamics. The current-driven magnetic excitation at finite field becomes significantly incoherent. This excitation is described by an effective…
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…
A new mechanism different from the spin accumulation picture is proposed for the current induced magnetization switching in magnetic tunnel junctions by taking into account the effect of the electron electron interaction. We found in tunnel…
We report measurements of magnetic switching and steady-state magnetic precession driven by spin-polarized currents in nanoscale magnetic tunnel junctions with low-resistance, < 5 Ohm-micron-squared, barriers. The current densities required…
We investigate the anisotropy of magnetic reversal and current-driven domain wall motion in annealed Ga_0.95Mn_0.05As thin films and Hall bar devices with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. Hall bars with current direction along the [110]…
Spin Hall effect converts charge current to spin current, which can exert spin-torque to switch the magnetization of a nanomagnet. Recently, it is shown that the ratio of spin current to charge current using spin Hall effect can be made…
The magnetic spin Hall effect is a time-reversal-odd phenomenon in which spin current is induced by the charge current. In the presence of a spin-orbit coupling and/or noncolinear magnetism, however, spin current is not uniquely defined.…
The spin Hall effect (SHE) is normally discussed in terms of a spin current, which is ill-defined in strongly spin-orbit-coupled systems because of spin non-conservation. In this work we propose an alternative view of SHE phenomena by…
The magnetic reversal by spin-polarized current of a magnetic junction consisting of two ferromagnetic layers and a nonmagnetic spacer in between is considered. Initially, the free layer is magnetized antiparallel to the pinned layer by an…
Current-induced spin torque and magnetization dynamics in the presence of spin Hall effect in magnetic textures is studied theoretically. The local deviation of the charge current gives rise to a current-induced spin torque of the form…
Recently, spin-transfer torque (STT) based magnetization switching has been widely utilized in magnetic resistance-based memories, which have broad applications in microcontroller units and other devices. This study utilizes a macrospin…
The mechanisms of the magnetization switching of magnetic multilayers driven by a current are studied by including exchange interaction between local moments and spin accumulation of conduction electrons. It is found that this exchange…
Spin currents can carry either spin angular momentum or its associated magnetic moment, which are no longer strictly proportional in multiband systems. Using a multiband $k \cdot p$ model, we compute the intrinsic spin Hall conductivity…
Threshold current of domain wall motion under spin-polarized electric current in ferromagnets is theoretically studied based on the equation of motion of a wall in terms of collective coordinates. Effects of non-adiabaticity and a so-called…
Pulsed current-induced magnetization reversal is investigated in the layer of (Ga,Mn)(Bi,As) dilute ferromagnetic semiconductor (DFS) epitaxially grown under tensile misfit strain causing perpendicular magnetic anisotropy in the layer. The…
We investigate the individual impacts of critical magnetodynamical parameters-effective magnetization and magnetic damping-on the auto-oscillation characteristics of nano-constriction-based Spin Hall Nano-Oscillators (SHNOs). Our…
According to the spin-torque model, current-driven magnetic dynamics in ferromagnetic multilayers is determined by the transfer of electron spin perpendicular to the layers' magnetizations. By separating the largest contributions to the…
We report time-resolved measurements of magnetization switching by spin-orbit torques in the absence of an external magnetic field in perpendicularly magnetized magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJ). Field-free switching is enabled by the dipolar…
Spin Hall effect (SHE) induced reversal of perpendicular magnetization has attracted significant interest, due to its potential to lead to low power memory and logic devices. However, the switching requires an assisted in-plane magnetic…
We theoretically investigate the nonlinear response current of a two-dimensional system under an in-plane magnetic field. Based on the extended semiclassical theory, we develop a unified theory including both longitudinal and transverse…
