Effects of confinement and electron transport on magnetic switching in single Co nanoparticles

چکیده
This work reports the first study of current-driven magnetization noise in a single, nanometerscale, ferromagnetic (Co) particle, attached to normal metal leads by high-resistance tunneling junctions. As the tunnel current increases at low temperature, the magnetic switching field decreases, its probability distribution widens, while the temperature of the environment remains nearly constant. These observations demonstrate nonequilibrium magnetization noise. A classical model of the noise is provided, where the spin-orbit interaction plays a central role in driving magnetic tunneling transitions.

Nanocomposite cation exchange membranes (CEMs) were prepared by adding various amounts of functionalized silica-coated magnetite nanoparticles to the sulfonated polyethersulfone (sPES) polymeric matrix. The particles were synthesized first by the co-precipitation method (M0). Different surface modifications were then carried out on them by grafting three functional groups of mercaptopropyl, pro...
