Dissipation of spin angular momentum in magnetic switching.

چکیده
Applying one ultrashort magnetic field pulse, we observe up to 10 precessional switches of the magnetization direction in single crystalline Fe films of 10 and 15 atomic layers. We find that the rate at which angular momentum is dissipated in uniform large angle spin precession increases with time and film thickness, surpassing the intrinsic ferromagnetic resonance spin lattice relaxation of Fe by nearly an order of magnitude.

New spintronics devices for GreenIT In our information-everywhere society IT is a major player for energy consumption and novel spintronic devices can play a role in the quest for GreenIT. Reducing power consumption of mobile devices by replacing volatile memory by fast non-volatile spintronic memory could also improve speed and a onememory-fits-all approach drastically simplifies the microelec...

متن کاملSuperparamagnetic Behavior of the Magnetic Hysteresis Loop in the Fe2O3@Pt Core-Shell Nanoparticles
Studies of the magnetization of Fe2O3@Pt nanoparticles at room temperature showed that there is superparamagnetic contribution with high saturation magnetization about 12.35(emu/g), and soft ferromagnetic contribution with narrow coercive field about 58(Oe). In this paper we fitted the hystersis loop of sample with Brillouin function that demonstrating existence of superparamagnetic phase. Tota...
متن کاملFluctuation theorem for a small engine and magnetization switching by spin torque.
We consider a reversal of the magnetic moment of a nanomagnet by a fluctuating spin torque induced by a nonequilibrium current of electron spins. This is an example of the problem of the escape of a particle from a metastable state subjected to a fluctuating nonconservative force. Spin torque is a nonconservative force, and its fluctuations are beyond the description of the fluctuation-dissipat...
