Magnetic thin films with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) have localized excitations that correspond to reversed dynamically precessing magnetic moments, known as magnetic droplet solitons. Fundamentally, these excitations are…
The prediction and realization of magnetic excitations driven by electrical currents via the spin transfer torque effect, enables novel magnetic nano-devices where spin-waves can be used to process and store information. The functional…
Recent experiments performed in current-driven nano-contacts with strong perpendicular anisotropy have shown that spin-transfer torque can drive self-localized spin waves [1, 2] that above a certain threshold intensity can condense into a…
We present experimental evidence of sub-GHz spin-transfer oscillations in metallic nano-contacts that are due to the translational motion of a magnetic vortex. The vortex is shown to execute large-amplitude orbital motion outside the…
We have measured spin-transfer-driven, large amplitude, current hysteretic, low frequency (< 500 MHz), narrowband oscillations in nanocontacts made to spin valve structures. The oscillations occur in zero field, persist up to 5 mT for in…
We demonstrate that a spin current flowing through a nano-contact into a uniaxial antiferromagnet with first- and second-order anisotropy can excite a self-localized dynamic magnetic soliton, known as a spin-wave droplet in ferromagnets.…
The nature of spin wave modes excited by spin-polarized direct current in a spin-torque auto-oscillator based on a magnetic nanocontact was studied by a micromagnetic simulation in the case when the external bias magnetic field was rotated…
Droplet solitons are coherently precessing solitary waves that have been recently realized in thin ferromagnets with perpendicular anisotropy.In the strongly nonlinear regime, droplets can be well approximated by a slowly precessing,…
The magnetic droplet soliton is a large amplitude, coherently precessing wave state that exists in ferromagnetic thin films with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. To effectively sustain a droplet, magnetic damping can be locally…
Large bending of materials can occur at the nanoscale in response to an electric polarization, what is called the flexoelectric effect, but to date this has not been observed directly. We report the direct observation of large flexoelectric…
The propagation and controlled manipulation of strongly nonlinear, two-dimensional solitonic states in a thin, anisotropic ferromagnet are theoretically demonstrated. It has been recently proposed that spin-polarized currents in a…
Excitation of magnons or spin-waves driven by nominally unpolarized transport currents in point contacts of normal and ferromagnetic metals is probed by irradiating the contacts with microwaves. Two characteristic dynamic effects are…
Magnetic dissipative droplets are localized, strongly nonlinear dynamical modes excited in nano-contact spin valves with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. These modes find potential application in nanoscale structures for magnetic storage…
We investigate spin transport in diffusive graphene nanoribbons with both clean and rough zigzag edges, and long-range potential fluctuations. The long-range fields along the ribbon edges cause the local doping to come close to the charge…
We present an experimental and theoretical study of the low-field dynamics of current-driven vortex oscillations in nanocontacts based on spin-valve multilayers. These oscillations appear as low-frequency (250-500 MHz) excitations in the…
Current-induced excitations in bilayer magnetic nanopillars have been studied with large magnetic fields applied perpendicular to the layers at low temperature. Junctions investigated all have Cu/Co/Cu/Co/Cu as core layer stacks. Two types…
We report an observation of spin-valve like hysteresis within a few atomic layers at a ferromagnetic interface. We use phonon spectroscopy of nanometer sized point contacts as an in-situ probe to study the mechanism of the effect. Distinct…
Magnetic droplets are non-topological dynamical solitons that can be nucleated and sustained in nano-contact based spin torque nano-oscillators (NC-STNOs) with perpendicular anisotropy free layers. While originally predicted in…
We have measured spin transfer-induced dynamics in magnetic nanocontact devices having a perpendicularly magnetized Co/Ni free layer and an in-plane magnetized CoFe fixed layer. The frequencies and powers of the excitations agree well with…
Magnetic droplet solitons are non-linear dynamical modes that can be excited in a thin film with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy with a spin-transfer-torque. Although droplet solitons have been proved to be stable with a hysteretic…
