Magnetic domain-wall motion by propagating spin waves

We found by micromagnetic simulations that the motion of a transverse wall (TW) type domain wall in magnetic thin-film nanostripes can be manipulated via interaction with spin waves (SWs) propagating through the TW. The velocity of the TW motion can be controlled by changes of the frequency and amplitude of the propagating SWs. Moreover, the TW motion is efficiently driven by specific SW frequencies that coincide with the resonant frequencies of the local modes existing inside the TW structure. The use of propagating SWs, whose frequencies are tuned to those of the intrinsic TW modes, is an alternative approach for controlling TW motion in nanostripes.

Spin-signal propagation in time-dependent noncollinear spin transport

Using a macroscopic analysis, we show that time-dependent noncollinear spin transport possesses a wavelike character. This leads to modifications of pure spin-diffusion dynamics and allows one to extract a finite spin-signal propagation velocity. We numerically study the dynamics of a pure spin current pumped into a nonmagnetic layer for precession frequencies ranging from GHz to THz.

Signal propagation in time-dependent spin transport

This paper analyzes theoretically the signal propagation in spin transport by modulating the current passing through magnetic multilayers. Using a macroscopic description of spin transport based on the dynamical Boltzmann equation, we show that time-dependent spin transport possesses a wave-like character that leads to modifications of pure spin-diffusion dynamics. In particular, the wave-like characteristics allow one to extract a finite spin signal-propagation velocity.
