Engineering magnetic anisotropy and magnetization switching in multilayers by strain.
The effect of the strain on the magnetic properties of metallic multilayers has been investigated by ab initio studies. Our results indicate that the magnetic anisotropy energy (MAE) of an Fe(001) surface can be drastically enhanced by capping with 5d elements. By choosing Ir-Fe multilayers as a model system, we demonstrate that the MAE which depends on the composition and the structure of the ...
متن کاملCMOS compatible nanoscale nonvolatile resistance switching memory.
We report studies on a nanoscale resistance switching memory structure based on planar silicon that is fully compatible with CMOS technology in terms of both materials and processing techniques employed. These two-terminal resistance switching devices show excellent scaling potential well beyond 10 Gb/cm2 and exhibit high yield (99%), fast programming speed (5 ns), high on/off ratio (10(3)), lo...
متن کاملRelaxing-Precessional Magnetization Switching
A new way of magnetization switching employing both the spin-transfer torque and the torque by a magnetic field is proposed. The solution of the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation shows that the dynamics of the magnetization in the initial stage of the switching is similar to that in the precessional switching, while that in the final stage is rather similar to the relaxing switching. We call the...
متن کاملMagnetization Dynamics Symmetry in Spin Torque Induced Magnetization Switching
Magnetization dynamics symmetry plays important roles in magnetization switching. Here we study magnetic field and spin torque induced magnetization switching. Spin moment transferring from polarized itinerant electrons to local magnetization provides a magnetization switching mechanism without using external magnetic field. Besides its importance in fundamental magnetization switching dynamics...
متن کاملFast 180° magnetization switching in a strain-mediated multiferroic heterostructure driven by a voltage
Voltage-driven 180° magnetization switching provides a low-power alternative to current-driven magnetization switching widely used in spintronic devices. Here we computationally demonstrate a promising route to achieve voltage-driven in-plane 180° magnetization switching in a strain-mediated multiferroic heterostructure (e.g., a heterostructure consisting of an amorphous, slightly elliptical Co...
