Induction of coherent magnetization switching in a few atomic layers of FeCo using voltage pulses.
The magnetization direction of a metallic magnet has generally been controlled by a magnetic field or by spin-current injection into nanosized magnetic cells. Both these methods use an electric current to control the magnetization direction; therefore, they are energy consuming. Magnetization control using an electric field is considered desirable because of its expected ultra-low power consump...
متن کاملPicosecond electric field pulse induced coherent magnetic switching in MgO/FePt/Pt(001)-based tunnel junctions: a multiscale study
Combined methods of first-principles calculations and Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) macrospin simulations are performed to investigate the coherent magnetization switching in the MgO/FePt/Pt(001)-based magnetic tunnel junctions triggered by short pulses of electric field through the control of magnetic anisotropy energy (MAE) electrically. First-principles calculations indicate that the MAE of ...
متن کاملSpin–orbit torque-assisted switching in magnetic insulator thin films with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy
As an in-plane charge current flows in a heavy metal film with spin-orbit coupling, it produces a torque on and thereby switches the magnetization in a neighbouring ferromagnetic metal film. Such spin-orbit torque (SOT)-induced switching has been studied extensively in recent years and has shown higher efficiency than switching using conventional spin-transfer torque. Here we report the SOT-ass...
متن کاملDomain structures and the influence of current on domains and domain walls in highly spin-polarized CrO2 wire elements
We present a detailed study of the equilibrium magnetization configurations and their response to injected current pulses in microstructured CrO2 wire elements. Using magnetic force microscopy, we determine that the magnetic domain structure of CrO2 wires strongly depends on the wire geometry, in particular, on the wire width and the wire orientation with respect to the magnetocrystalline aniso...
متن کاملReversible H-induced switching of the magnetic easy axis in Ni/Cu(001) thin films.
A reversible switching of the easy axis of magnetization for Ni on Cu(001) from in plane to out of plane is found by changing the partial pressure of hydrogen in the gas phase around the sample, allowing even for oscillations of the magnetization direction. A quantitative low-energy electron diffraction study of the diffracted intensity versus electron energy [I(E)] shows that the hydrogen-indu...
