Control and Optimization of Coherence of a Nano-sized Spin-torque Microwave Oscillator for Military Nano- Electronics
A theory of generation linewidth of a spin-torque oscillator (STO) based on an in-plane magnetized nanopillar with an anisotropic “free” magnetic layer has been developed. It is shown that the coherent properties of microwave generation strongly depend on the direction and magnitude of the in-plane bias magnetic field. In particular, it is predicted that by choosing the direction of the bias fi...
متن کاملFractional synchronization of spin-torque nano-oscillators.
We experimentally demonstrate a series of fractional synchronization regimes (Devil's staircase) in a spin-torque nano-oscillator driven by a microwave field. These regimes are characterized by rational relations between the driving frequency and the frequency of the oscillation. An analysis based on the phase model of auto-oscillator indicates that fractional synchronization becomes possible w...
متن کاملImages of a spin-torque-driven magnetic nano-oscillator.
We present the first space- and time-resolved images of the spin-torque-induced steady-state oscillation of a magnetic vortex in a spin-valve nanostructure. We find that the vortex structure in a nanopillar is considerably more complicated than the 2D idealized structure often-assumed, which has important implications for the driving efficiency. The sense of the vortex gyration is uniquely dete...
متن کاملNoise properties of a resonance-type spin-torque microwave detector
We analyze performance of a resonance-type spin-torque microwave detector (STMD) in the presence of noise and reveal two distinct regimes of STMD operation. In the first (high-frequency) regime the minimum detectable microwave power Pmin is limited by the low-frequency JohnsonNyquist noise and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of STMD is proportional to the input microwave power PRF. In the secon...
متن کاملGiant spin-torque diode sensitivity in the absence of bias magnetic field
Microwave detectors based on the spin-torque diode effect are among the key emerging spintronic devices. By utilizing the spin of electrons in addition to charge, they have the potential to overcome the theoretical performance limits of their semiconductor (Schottky) counterparts. However, so far, practical implementations of spin-diode microwave detectors have been limited by the necessity to ...
