Embedded non-volatile memory technologies such as resistive random access memory (RRAM) and spin-transfer torque magnetic RAM (STT MRAM) are increasingly being researched for application in neuromorphic computing and hardware accelerators…

An important contribution to the thermoelectric and spin-caloric transport properties in magnetic materials at elevated temperatures is the formation of a spin-disordered state due to local moment fluctuations. This effect has not been…

A new quantum approach is presented that can account for the description of small ferromagnetic particles magnetization tunneling. An estimate of the saturation value of an external applied magnetic field along the easy axis is obtained. An…

This paper analyzes write errors in spin torque switching due to thermal fluctuations in a system with Perpendicular Magnetic Anisotropy (PMA). Prior analytical and numerical methods are summarized, a physics based Fokker-Planck Equation…

Spin pumping is a microwave-driven means for injecting spins from a ferromagnet into the adjacent target material. The insertion of a thin antiferromagnetic layer between the ferromagnet and the target material is known to enhance the spin…

We study stochastic ratchets with inertia in the limit where the time correlations become important. We have developed a Fokker-Planck type equation for the ratchet problem which includes the memory effects. It is tested with comparison to…

We theoretically investigate the threshold current for thermally activated switching of a perpendicular magnet by spin-orbit spin torque. Based on the Fokker-Planck equation, we obtain an analytic expression of the switching current, in…

Thermal spin-transfer torque describes the manipulation of the magnetization by the application of a heat flow. The effect has been calculated theoretically by Jia et al. in 2011. It is found to require large temperature gradients in the…

The mechanism of spin-pumping, described by Tserkovnyak et al., is formally analyzed in the general case of a magnetic multilayer consisting of two or more metallic ferromagnetic (FM) films separated by normal metal (NM) layers. It is shown…

Spin torques in magnetic multilayers are produced by spin polarization $P$ of ferromagnetic (F) layers, and increase with growing $P$. The latter, however, cannot exceed the $P=1$ value found in half metals. We study the $P=1$ case to find…

Spin transfer torque (STT) driven by a charge current plays a key role in magnetization switching in heavy-metal/ferromagnetic-metal structures. The STT efficiency defined by the ratio between the effective field due to STT and the current…

In this paper we show that the spin transfer torque can be described by a pseudo magnetic field, proportional to the magnetic moment of the itinerant electrons that enters the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation in the same way as other…

Turbulent flows in the solar wind, large scale current sheets, multiple current sheets, and shock waves lead to the formation of environments in which a dense network of current sheets is established and sustains "turbulent reconnection".…

Antiferromagnets are promising candidates as active components in spintronic applications. They share features with ferrimagnets in that opposing spin orientations exist in two or more sublattices. Spin transfer torque and spin pumping are…

We formulate a theory of current-induced spin torques in inhomogeneous III-V ferromagnetic semiconductors. The carrier spin-3/2 and large spin-orbit interaction, leading to spin non-conservation, introduce significant conceptual differences…

Antiferromagnets and compensated ferrimagnets offer opportunities to investigate spin dynamics in the 'terahertz gap' because their resonance modes lie in the 0.3 THz to 3 THz range. Despite some inherent advantages when compared to…

To gain control over magnetic order on ultrafast time scales, a fundamental understanding of the way electron spins interact with the surrounding crystal lattice is required. However, measurement and analysis even of basic collective…

Understanding the magnetization dynamics induced by spin transfer torques in perpendicularly magnetized magnetic tunnel junction nanopillars and its dependence on material parameters is critical to optimizing device performance. Here we…

We analyze the statistical distribution of switching durations in spin-transfer switching induced by current steps, and discuss biasing strategies to enhance the reproducibility of switching durations. We use a macrospin approximation and…

A selfconsistent theory of the current-induced switching of magnetization using nonequilibrium Keldysh formalism is developed for a junction of two ferromagnets separated by a nonmagnetic spacer. It is shown that the spin-transfer torques…
