Optical control of magnetism in NiFe/VO2 heterostructures

Optical methods for magnetism manipulation have been considered as a promising strategy for ultralow-power and ultrahigh-speed spin switches, which becomes a hot spot in the field of spintronics. However, a widely applicable and efficient method to combine optical operation with magnetic modulation is still highly desired. Here, the strongly correlated electron material VO2 is introduced to realize phase-transition based optical control of the magnetism in NiFe. The NiFe/VO2 bilayer heterostructure features appreciable modulations in electrical conductivity (55%), coercivity (60%), and magnetic anisotropy (33.5%). Further analyses indicate that interfacial strain coupling plays a crucial role in this modulation. Utilizing this optically controlled magnetism modulation feature, programmable Boolean logic gates (AND, OR, NAND, NOR, XOR, NXOR and NOT) for high-speed and low-power data processing are demonstrated based on this engineered heterostructure. As a demonstration of phase-transition spintronics, this work may pave the way for next-generation electronics in the post-Moore era.

Large phase-transition-induced magnetic anisotropy change in (Co/Pt)2/VO2 heterostructure

We report the phase-transition controlled magnetic anisotropy modulation in the (Co/Pt)2/VO2 heterostructure, where VO2 is introduced into the system to applied an interfacial strain by its metal-insulator transition. A large reversible modulation of the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) reaching 38 kJ/m3 is observed during this process. The calculated energy density variation of interfacial anisotropy reaches 100 mJ/m2, which shows significant advantage over traditional modulation strategies. Further experimental results including magnetization change versus temperature, strain buffered modulation and pre-strained sample comparison prove that the interfacial coupling between VO2 and PMA layers plays a crucial role in this modulation. This work, demonstrating the great potential of phase-transition material in efficient magnetic anisotropy modulation, would benefit the exploration for low-power consumption devices.

John-Nirenberg Radius and Collapse in Conformal Geometry

Given a positive function $u\in W^{1,n}$, we define its John-Nirenberg radius at point $x$ to be the supreme of the radius such that $\int_{B_t}|\nabla\log u|^n<ε_0^n$ when $n>2$, and $\int_{B_t}|\nabla u|^2<ε_0^2$ when $n=2$. We will show that for a collapsing sequence in a fixed conformal class under some curvature conditions, the radius is bounded below by a positive constant. As applications, we will study the convergence of a conformal metric sequence on a $4$-manifold with bounded $\|K\|_{W^{1,2}}$, and prove a generalized Hélein's Convergence Theorem.
