We show that dipole-field induced antiferromagnetic coupling, or RKKY ferromagnetic coupling, between Co layers can strongly affect the low magnetic field switching behavior of Co/Cu/Co nanopillars. Whereas current-assisted switching at low…
Finite-temperature micromagnetics simulations are employed to study the magnetization-switching dynamics driven by a field applied at an angle to the long axis of an iron nanopillar. A bi-modal distribution in the switching times is…
Stochastic micromagnetic simulations are employed to study switching in three-dimensional magnetic nanopillars exposed to highly misaligned fields. The switching appears to proceed through two different decay modes, characterized by very…
Molecular beam epitaxy is used to fabricate magnetic single and double layer junctions which are deposited in prefabricated nanostencil masks. For all Co | Cu | Co double layer junctions we observe a stable intermediate resistance state…
We have studied the influence of the magnetization on the superconducting transition temperature ($T_c$) in bi- and trilayers consisting of the half-metallic ferromagnet La$_{0.67}$Sr$_{0.33}$MnO$_3$ (LSMO) and the high-temperature…
We explore computationally the formation of tri-layer superlattices as an alternative approach for combining ferroelectricity with magnetism to form magnetoelectric multiferroics. We find that the contribution to the superlattice…
Exploiting current-induced spin-orbit torques (SOTs) to manipulate the magnetic state of dipolar-coupled nanomagnet systems with in-plane magnetic anisotropy, such as artificial spin ices, provides a route to local,…
We study the coupled current and magnetization noise in magnetic nanostructures by magnetoelectronic circuit theory. Spin current fluctuations, which depend on the magnetic configuration, are found to be an important source of magnetization…
Current-induced magnetization excitation is a core phenomenon for next-generation magnetic nanodevices, and has been attributed to the spin-transfer torque (STT) that originates from the transfer of the spin angular momentum between a…
We introduce a new class of spintronics devices in which a spin-valve like effect results from strong spin-orbit coupling in a single ferromagnetic layer rather than from injection and detection of a spin-polarized current by two coupled…
We theoretically address the quantum dynamics of a nanomechanical resonator coupled to the macrospin of a magnetic nanoparticle by both instanton and perturbative approaches. We demonstrate suppression of the tunneling between opposite…
We developed a method to calculate the magnetoresistance of magnetic nanostructures. We discretize a magnetic disk in small cells and numerically solve the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) equation in order to obtain its magnetization profile.…
The current dependence of the switching barrier for spin torque switching of an in-plane magnetized ferromagnet was studied. Two scaling currents, I_{c}$ and I_{c}^{*}(>I_{c}), were introduced to distinguish the magnetization stability. In…
Current-induced switching is considered in a magnetic junction. The junction includes pinned and free ferromagnetic layers which work in the regime of the high spin injection. It is shown that in such a regime the exchange magnetization…
The design of spin-transport based devices such as magnon transistors or spin valves will require multilayer systems composed of different magnetic materials with different physical properties. Such layered structures can show various…
We present \textit{ab initio} studies for different Ni nanocontacts and show changes in the conductance of such constrictions due to atomic rearrangements in the contact. In particular we consider a Ni particle and show that 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…
The flow of in-plane current through ultrathin magnetic heterostructures can cause magnetization switching or domain wall nucleation owing to bulk and interfacial effects. Within the magnetic layer, the current can create magnetic…
We theoretically study the spin-polarized transport through a single-molecule magnet, which is weakly coupled to ferromagnetic leads, by means of the rate-equation approach. We consider both the ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic…
