Spin-torque excitation of perpendicular standing spin waves in coupled YIG/Co heterostructures

March 23, 2018

Stefan Klinger, Vivek P. Amin, Stephan Gepraegs, Kathrin Ganzhorn, Hannes Maier-Flaig, Matthias Althammer, Hans Huebl, Rudolf Gross, Robert McMichael, Mark D. Stiles, Sebastian Goennenwein, Mathias Weiler
We investigate yttrium iron garnet (YIG)/cobalt (Co) heterostructures using broadband ferromagnetic resonance (FMR). We observe an efficient excitation of perpendicular standing spin waves (PSSWs) in the YIG layer when the resonance frequencies of the YIG

Spin currents and spin-orbit torques in ferromagnetic trilayers

March 19, 2018
Author(s)
Seung-heon C. Baek, Vivek P. Amin, Young-Wan Oh, Gyungchoon Go, Seung-Jae Lee, Geun-Hee Lee, Kab-Jin Kim, Mark D. Stiles, Byong-Guk Park, Kyung Jin Lee
Spin current generation by the spin-orbit interaction is one of the central themes in condensed matter physics. The spin Hall effect, for instance, is a bulk spin-orbit coupling effect that converts a charge current to a spin current. A recent theory

Synthetic Antiferromagnetic Spintronics

Rembert Duine, Kyung Jin Lee, Stuart S. Parkin, Mark D. Stiles
Spintronic and nanomagnetic devices often derive their functionality from layers of different materials and the interfaces between them. This is especially true for synthetic antiferromagnets — two or more ferromagnetic layers aligned in antiparallel

Neuromorphic Computing through Time-Multiplexing with a Spin-Torque Nano-Oscillator

December 31, 2017

Mathieu Riou, Flavio Abreu Araujo, Jacob Torrejon, Sumito Tsunegi, Guru Khalsa, Damien Querlioz, Paolo Bortolotti, Vincent Cros, K. Yakushiji, Akio Fukushima, Hitoshi Kubota, Shinji Yuasa, Mark D. Stiles, Julie Grollier
Fabricating powerful neuromorphic chips the size of a thumb requires miniaturizing both hardware synapses and neurons. The challenge for neurons is to scale them down to submicrometer diameters while maintaining the properties that allow for reliable

Spin-orbit torques from interfacial spin-orbit coupling for various interfaces

September 26, 2017
Author(s)
Kyoung-Whan Kim, Kyung Jin Lee, Jairo Sinova, Hyun-Woo Lee, Mark D. Stiles
We use a perturbative approach to study the effects of interfacial spin-orbit coupling in magnetic multilayers by treating the two-dimensional Rashba model in a fully three-dimensional description of electron transport near an interface. This formalism

Advancements in Spintronics

Hideo Ohno, Mark D. Stiles, Bernard Dieny
Spintronics is the concept of using the spin degree of freedom to control electrical current to expand the capabilities of electronic devices. Over the last 10 years' considerable progress has been made. This progress has led to technologies ranging from

Neuromorphic computing with nanoscale spintronic oscillators

Jacob Torrejon, Mathieu Riou, Flavio Abreu Araujo, Sumito Tsunegi, Guru Khalsa, Damien Querlioz, Paolo Bortolotti, Vincent Cros, K. Yakushiji, Akio Fukushima, Hitoshi Kubota, Shinji Yuasa, Mark D. Stiles, Julie Grollier
In the brain, hundred billions of neurons develop rhythmic activities and interact to process information. Taking inspiration from this behavior to realize high density, low power neuromorphic computing requires coupling huge numbers of nanoscale non

Rondinelli, Nitin Samarth, Ivan K. Schuller, Andrei N. Slavin, Mark D. Stiles, Oleg Tchernyshyov, Andre Thiaville, Barry L. Zink
This article reviews static and dynamic interfacial effects in magnetism, focusing in particular on the current explosion in interfacially-driven magnetic effects and phenomena associated with spin-orbit coupling and intrinsic symmetry breaking at

Theory of Kondo suppression of spin polarization in nonlocal spin valves

March 7, 2017
Author(s)
Kyoung-Whan Kim, Liam O'Brien, Paul A. Crowell, C. Leighton, Mark D. Stiles
We theoretically analyze contributions from the Kondo effect to the spin polarization and spin diffusion length in all-metal nonlocal spin valves. Interdiffusion of ferromagnetic atoms into the normal metal layer creates a region in which Kondo physics

Perpendicular magnetic anisotropy of two-dimensional Rashba ferromagnets

November 3, 2016
Author(s)
Kyoung-Whan Kim, Kyung Jin Lee, Hyun-Woo Lee, Mark D. Stiles
We compute the magnetocrystalline anisotropy energy within two-dimensional Rashba models. For a free- electron Rashba model with infinite band width and infinite Brillouin zone, the anisotropy is exactly zero no matter how strong the Rashba coupling is
