We consider effects of the spin degree of freedom on the nanomechanics of a single-electron transistor (SET) containing a nanometer-sized metallic cluster suspended between two magnetic leads. It is shown that in such a…
The wave nature of electrons in semiconductor nanostructures results in spatial interference effects similar to those exhibited by coherent light. The presence of spin-orbit coupling renders interference in spin space and in real space…
We report a mechanical effect in spin-valve nanopillars due to spin transfer. A polarized current carrying electron spins transfers torque to local magnetization and leads to a magnetic switching of free layer. Like classical Einstein-de…
We investigate theoretically the prospects for using a magnetic nanoelectromechanical single-electron tunneling (NEM-SET) device as an electronic spin filter. We find that strong magnetic exchange forces on the net spin of the mobile…
We have theoretically studied how resonant spin wave modes in an elliptical nanomagnet are affected by fabrication defects, such as small local thickness variations. Our results indicate that defects of this nature, which can easily result…
We consider "shuttling" of spin-polarized electrons between two magnetic electrodes (half-metals) by a movable dot with a single electronic level. If the magnetization of the electrodes is antiparallel we show that the transmittance of the…
We study the effects of spin transfer on thermally activated dynamics of magnetic nanopillars with identical thicknesses of the magnetic layers. The symmetric nanopillars exhibit anomalous dependencies of switching statistics on magnetic…
We demonstrate the predicted out-of-plane precession induced by spin transfer in magnetic nanostructures with in-plane magnetic field. We show that other magnetic excitations have a significant effect on the stability of the out-of plane…
Inefficient screening of electric fields in nanoconductors makes electric manipulation of electronic transport in nanodevices possible. Accordingly, electrostatic (charge) gating is routinely used to affect and control the Coulomb…
A theory of a thermally induced single-electron "shuttling" instability in a magnetic nanomechanical device subject to an external magnetic field is presented in the Coulomb blockade regime of electron transport. The model magnetic shuttle…
Exchange forces on the movable dot ("shuttle") in a magnetic shuttle device depend on the parity of the number of shuttling electrons. The performance of such a device can therefore be tuned by changing the strength $U$ of Coulomb…
On-chip manipulating and controlling the temporal and spatial evolution of light is of crucial importance for information processing in future planar integrated nanophotonics. The spin and orbital angular momentum of light, which can be…
We study spin-dependent transport in a suspended carbon nanotube quantum dot in contact with two ferromagnetic leads and with the dot's spin coupled to the flexural mechanical modes. The spin-vibration interaction induces spin-flip…
A device enabling mechanically-controlled spin and electric transport in mesoscopic structures is proposed. It is based on the transfer of electrons through weak links formed by suspended nanowires, on which the charge carriers experience a…
Shuttling of electrons in single-molecule transistors with magnetic leads in the presence of an external magnetic field is considered theoretically. For a current of partially spin-polarized electrons a shuttle instability is predicted to…
We study, both experimentally and by numerical modeling, the magnetic dynamics that can be excited in a magnetic thin-film nanopillar device using the spin torque from a spatially localized current injected via a 10s-of-nm-diameter…
Photonic metasurfaces are ultrathin electromagnetic wave-molding metamaterials providing the missing link for the integration of nanophotonic chips with nanoelectronic circuits. An extra twist in this field originates from spin-optical…
Spin torque and spin Hall effect nanooscillators generate high intensity spin wave auto oscillations on the nanoscale enabling novel microwave applications in spintronics, magnonics, and neuromorphic computing. For their operation, these…
We demonstrate microwave manipulation of the spin states of electrically injected spin-polarized electrons in silicon. Although the silicon channel is bounded by ferromagnetic metal films, we show that moderate microwave power can be…
We show that a carbon nanotube can serve as a functional electric weak link performing photo-spintronic transduction. A spin current, facilitated by strong spin-orbit interactions in the nanotube and not accompanied by a charge current, is…
