  1. 1. Fabrication and Characterization of Nanocontact Spin-Torque Oscillators

    Author : Sohrab Redjai Sani; Johan Åkerman; Brad Engel; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Spin-torque oscillators; phase locking; spin wave; giant magnetoresistance; spin transfer torque; thin films.;

    Abstract : The manufacturing of nanocontact-based spin-torque oscillators (NC-STOs)has opened the door for spintronic devices to play a part as active microwaveelements. The NC-STO has the capability of converting a direct current intoa microwave signal, and vice versa, by utilizing the spin transfer torque (STT)in ferromagnetic multilayer systems. READ MORE

  2. 2. Engineering Magnetic Droplets in Nanocontact Spin-Torque Nano-Oscillators

    Author : Sheng Jiang; Johan Åkerman; Dario Arena; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Magnetic Droplet; Magnetic Tunnel Junction; Perpendicular Magnetic Anisotropy; Spin-torque Nano-Oscillators; Spin-Valve.; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : Spin-torque nano-oscillators (STNOs) are nanoscale spintronic devices capable of generating highly tunable broadband microwave signals. In this thesis, I study nanocontact (NC)-based STNOs using strong perpendicular magnetic anisotropy(PMA) free layers, where a novel magnetic soliton—a magnetic droplet—exists. READ MORE

  3. 3. Spin Torque and Spin Hall Nano-Oscillators with Single Magnetic Layers

    Author : Philipp Dürrenfeld; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Spintronics; Spin Torque Oscillators; Spin Hall Effect; Synchronization;

    Abstract : Spin-torque oscillators (STOs) are capable of producing tunable broadband high-frequency signals within a nanometer-sized region. In this thesis, novel designs for STOs will be discussed; the common theme of these designs will be their use of only one ferromagnetic (FM) material. READ MORE
