We measure the giant magnetoresistance (GMR) with the current both parallel and perpendicular to the direction of the magnetization in the ferromagnetic (FM) layers and thus probe the anisotropy of the effective mean free paths for the…
Nanoscale superlattices with uniaxial ferromagnetic layers antiferromagnetically coupled through non-magnetic spacers are recently used as components of magnetoresistive and recording devices. In the last years intensive experimental…
We present the combination of Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Dynamical Mean Field Theory (DMFT) for computing the electron transmission through two-terminals nanoscale devices. The method is then applied to metallic junctions…
Giant magnetoresistance (GMR) of sequentially evaporated Fe-Ag structures have been investigated. Direct experimental evidence is given that inserting ferromagnetic layers into a granular structure significantly enhances the…
The giant magnetoresistance (GMR) of ferromagnetic bilayers with a superconducting contact (F1/F2/S) is calculated in ballistic and diffusive regimes. As in spin-valve, it is assumed that the magnetization in the two ferromagnetic layers F1…
It is shown that, upon the electron quantum transport via the nanostructure containing a spin dimer, the spin-flip processes caused by the s-f exchange interaction between electron and dimer spins lead to the Fano resonance effects. An…
A quasiclassical theory of giant magnetoresistance in nanoscale point contacts between different ferromagnetic metals is developed. The contacts were sorted by three types of mutual positions of the conduction spin-subband bottoms which are…
The effect of incoherent interlayer transport on the interlayer resistance of a layered metal is considered. We find that for both quasi-one-dimensional and quasi-two-dimensional Fermi liquids the angular dependence of the magnetoresistance…
In solid state physics, giant magnetoresistance is the large change in electrical resistance due to an external magnetic field. Here we show that giant magnetoresistance is possible in a spin chain composed of weakly interacting layers of…
The Stern-Gerlach (SG) effect is well known as the spin-dependent splitting of a beam of atoms carrying magnetic moments by a magnetic-field gradient, leading to the concept of electron spin. Antiferromagnets can accommodate two magnon…
Giant or tunneling magnetoresistance are physical phenomena used for reading information in commercial spintronic devices. The effects rely on a conserved spin current passing between a reference and a sensing ferromagnetic electrode in a…
The properties of the archetypal Co/Cu giant magnetoresistance (GMR) spin-valve structure have been modified by the insertion of very thin (sub-monolayer) $\delta$-layers of various elements at different points within the Co layers, and at…
We address two finite size effects in perpendicular transport through magnetic multilayers. When the magnetic layer thickness in spin valves becomes of the order or smaller than the spin-flip diffusion length, structural asymmetries affect…
We investigate the formation and dynamics of spin textures in antiferromagnetic insulators adjacent to a heavy-metal substrate with strong spin-orbit interactions. Exchange coupling to conduction electrons engenders an effective anisotropy,…
We develop a theory to compute the domain-wall magnetoresistance (DWMR) in antiferromagnetic (AFM) metals with different spin structures. In the diffusive transport regime, the DWMR can be either {\it negative} or positive depending on the…
Transport properties of magnetic multilayers in current perpendicular to the plane of the layers geometry are defined by diffusive scattering in the bulk of the layers, and diffusive and ballistic scattering across the interfaces. Due to…
The temperature dependence of the giant magnetoresistance (GMR) for currents parallel and perpendicular to the multilayer plane, is discussed by taking account of the random exchange potentials, phonon scatterings and spin fluctuations. The…
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 investigate the spin transport and ferromagnetic resonance properties of giant magnetoresistive (GMR) Co/Cu-Ni multilayers with variable levels of Ni doping in the Cu spacer. We present an experimental evidence for a…
We study the dependence of perpendicular-current magnetoresistance in magnetic multilayers on the angle between the magnetizations of the layers. This dependence varies with the thickness of one of the layers, and is different for…
