Metallic thin film ferromagnets generically possess spiral states that carry dissipationless spin currents. We relate the critical values of these supercurrents to micromagnetic material parameters, identify the circumstances under which…
Spin currents can modify the magnetic state of ferromagnetic ultrathin films through spin-orbit torque. They may be generated by means of spin-orbit interaction by either bulk or interfacial phenomena. Electrical transport measurements…
Current-induced torques on ferromagnetic nanoparticles and on domain walls in ferromagnetic nanowires are normally understood in terms of transfer of conserved spin angular momentum between spin-polarized currents and the magnetic…
In a magnetic multilayer, magnetizations can be manipulated by spin transfer torque. Both spin transfer torque and its reciprocal effect, spin pumping, are governed by spin mixing conductance. The magnitude of spin mixing conductance at the…
We present a microscopic theory of spin torque due to diffusive spin currents induced by spin accumulation. The obtained expression is a natural extension of the existing one due to 'local' spin currents associated with ordinary electric…
The distribution is calculated of the electron spin polarization under current-driven spin injection from a probe to a ferromagnetic film. It is shown that the main parameters determining difference of the spin polarization from the…
In metallic ferromagnets, the spin-transfer torque and spin-motive force are known to exhibit a reciprocal relationship. Recent experiments on ferromagnets with strong spin-orbit coupling have revealed a rich complexity in the interaction…
We introduce the continuity equation for the electromagnetic spin angular momentum (SAM) in matter and discuss the torque associated with the SAM transfer in terms of effective spin forces acting in a material. In plasmonic metal, these…
A magnetoelectronic thin-film transistor is proposed that can display negative differential resistance and gain. The working principle is the modulation of the soure-drain current in a spin valve by the magnetization of a third electrode,…
Understanding the magnetization switching process in ferromagnetic thin films is essential for many technological applications. We investigate the effects of periodic driving via magnetic fields on a macrospin system under explicit…
Current-driven spin torques in metallic spin-valves composed of antiferromagnets are theoretically studied using the non-equilibrium Green's function method implemented on a tight-binding model. We focus our attention on G-type and L-type…
It has been shown experimentally a long time ago that the magnetic ordering causes an anomalous behavior of the electron resistivity in ferromagnetic crystals. Phenomenological explanations based on the interaction between itinerant…
This chapter presents a review on spin transfer torque in magnetic tunnel junctions. In the first part, we propose an overview of experimental and theoretical studies addressing current-induced magnetization excitations in magnetic tunnel…
We investigate spin-orbit torques on magnetization in an insulating ferromagnetic (FM) layer that is brought into a close proximity to a topological insulator (TI). In addition to the well-known field-like spin-orbit torque, we identify an…
The problem of electron resonant and non-resonant scatterings on two magnetized barriers is studied in the one-dimension. The transfer-matrix is built up to exactly calculate the coefficient of the electron transmittance through the system…
We study spin-dependent electron transport through a ferromagnetic-antiferromagnetic-normal metal tunneling junction subject to a voltage or temperature bias, in the absence of spin-orbit coupling. We derive microscopic formulas for various…
We theoretically examine the spin-transfer torque in the presence of spin-orbit interaction (SOI) at impurities in a ferromagnetic metal on the basis of linear response theory. We obtained, in addition to the usual spin-transfer torque, a…
The anomalous Hall effect is mainly used to probe the magnetization orientation in ferromagnetic materials. A less explored aspect is the torque acting back on magnetization, an effect that can be important at high currents. The spin-orbit…
In this review, we outline the important results on the resistivity encountered by an electron in magnetically ordered materials. The mechanism of the collision between the electron and the lattice spins is shown. Experiments on the spin…
We show that the transverse components of spin current in a ferromagnet is linked to an off diagonal spin component of the transmission matrix at interfaces;it has little to do with the mismatch of band structures between dissimilar metals.…
