  1. 11. First-principles theory of electrically-induced spin and orbital magnetization

    Author : Leandro Salemi; Peter M. Oppeneer; Yuriy Mokrousov; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Spin-orbit torque; spin Hall effect; Rashba-Edelstein effect; spin Nernst effect; relativistic DFT; spin-orbitronics;

    Abstract : Spin-orbit torques (SOTs) have emerged recently as practical tools to control the magnetization in spintronic devices, but it is debated what the underlying fundamental processes are that enable fast and energy-efficient magnetization switching.In this thesis, we investigate theoretically possible means of controlling magnetization in magnetic materials and heterostructures.

    Abstract : Spin-torque and spin Hall nano-oscillators are nanoscale devices (about 100 nm) capable of producing tunable broadband high-frequency microwave signals ranging from 0.1 GHz to over 65 GHz that several research groups trying to reach up to 200 - 300 GHz. READ MORE

  4. 14. Spin transfer torques and spin dynamics in point contacts and spin-flop tunnel junctions

    Author : Alexander Konovalenko; Vladislav Korenivski; David W. Abraham; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; spin dynamics; spin transfer torques; point contacts; magnetization dynamics; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : The first part of this thesis is an experimental study of the spin-dependent transport in magnetic point contacts. Nano-contacts are produced micromechanically, by bringing a sharpened non-magnetic (N) tip into contact with a ferromagnetic (F) film. READ MORE

  5. 15. Theoretical Studies of Spin-Dependent Quantum Phenomena in Semiconductor Nanostructures

    Author : Patrik Brusheim; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Zitterbewegung.; spin Hall effect; spintronics; Spin; quantum transport;

    Abstract : The study of spin transport has emerged at the forefront of condensed matter physics during the last decade. Much of the interest has undoubtedly been sparked by the advent of the spintronics paradigm and the idea of creating novel electronic devices based on the spin degree of freedom of the carriers.
