Control of ferromagnetism of Vanadium Oxide thin films by oxidation states

Vanadium oxide (VOx) is a material of significant interest due to its metal-insulator transition (MIT) properties as well as its diverse stable antiferromagnetism depending on the valence states of V and O with distinct MIT transitions and Néel temperatures. Although several studies reported the ferromagnetism in the VOx, it was mostly associated with impurities or defects, and pure VOx has rarely been reported as ferromagnetic. Our research presents clear evidence of ferromagnetism in the VOx thin films, exhibiting a saturation magnetization of approximately 14 kA/m at 300 K. We fabricated 20-nm thick VOx thin films via reactive sputtering from a metallic vanadium target in various oxygen atmosphere. The oxidation states of ferromagnetic VOx films show an ill-defined stoichiometry of V2O3+p, where p = 0.05, 0.23, 0.49, with predominantly disordered microstructures. Ferromagnetic nature of these VOx films is confirmed through a strong antiferromagnetic exchange coupling with the neighboring ferromagnetic layer in the VOx/Co bilayers, in which the spin configurations of Co layer is influenced strongly due to the additional anisotropy introduced by VOx layer. The present study highlights the potential of VOx as an emerging functional magnetic material with tunability by oxidation states for modern spintronic applications.

Quantitative agreement of Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions for domain-wall motion and spin-wave propagation

The magnetic exchange interaction is the one of the key factors governing the basic characteristics of magnetic systems. Unlike the symmetric nature of the Heisenberg exchange interaction, the interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) generates an antisymmetric exchange interaction which offers challenging opportunities in spintronics with intriguing antisymmetric phenomena. The role of the DMI, however, is still being debated, largely because distinct strengths of DMI have been measured for different magnetic objects, particularly chiral magnetic domain walls (DWs) and non-reciprocal spin waves (SWs). In this paper, we show that, after careful data analysis, both the DWs and SWs experience the same strength of DMI. This was confirmed by spin-torque efficiency measurement for the DWs, and Brillouin light scattering measurement for the SWs. This observation, therefore, indicates the unique role of the DMI on the magnetic DW and SW dynamics and also guarantees the compatibility of several DMI-measurement schemes recently proposed.

Interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction, surface anisotropy energy,and spin pumping at spin orbit coupled Ir/Co interface

The interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (iDMI), surface anisotropy energy, and spin pumping at the Ir/Co interface are experimentally investigated by performing Brillouin light scattering. Contrary to previous reports, we suggest that the sign of the iDMI at the Ir/Co interface is the same as in the case of the Pt/Co interface. We also find that the magnitude of the iDMI energy density is relatively smaller than in the case of the Pt/Co interface, despite the large strong spin-orbit coupling (SOC) of Ir. The saturation magnetization and the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) energy are significantly improved due to a strong SOC. Our findings suggest that an SOC in an Ir/Co system behaves in different ways for iDMI and PMA. Finally, we determine the spin pumping effect at the Ir/Co interface, and it increases the Gilbert damping constant from 0.012 to 0.024 for 1.5 nmthick Co.

Study of spin dynamics and damping on the magnetic nanowire arrays with various nanowire widths

We investigate the spin dynamics including Gilbert damping in the ferromagnetic nanowire arrays. We have measured the ferromagnetic resonance of ferromagnetic nanowire arrays using vector-network analyzer ferromagnetic resonance (VNA-FMR) and analyzed the results with the micromagnetic simulations. We find excellent agreement between the experimental VNA-FMR spectra and micromagnetic simulations result for various applied magnetic fields. We find that the demagnetization factor for longitudinal conditions, Nz (Ny) increases (decreases) as decreasing the nanowire width in the micromagnetic simulations. For the transverse magnetic field, Nz (Ny) increases (decreases) as increasing the nanowire width. We also find that the Gilbert damping constant increases from 0.018 to 0.051 as the increasing nanowire width for the transverse case, while it is almost constant as 0.021 for the longitudinal case.

Effect of annealing temperature on exchange stiffness of CoFeB thin films

We investigate the exchange stiffness constants of 28-nm-thick CoFeB film using Brillouin light scattering. Series of CoFeB films are prepared on the MgO(001) substrate with or without additional 5-nm thick MgO buffer layer, the effect of the annealing temperature on the exchange stiffness constants are studied. We found that the exchange stiffness constant of 400oC annealed sample with MgO buffer increased by 10 % form the 200oC annealed sample (=0.73 +/- 0.01 x 10-11 J/m), while the exchange stiffness constant of without MgO buffer layer sample increase by 6 % from the as-grown sample (=1.11 +/- 0.02 x 10-11 J/m).

Resource Sharing and Pipelining in Coarse-Grained Reconfigurable Architecture for Domain-Specific Optimization

Coarse-grained reconfigurable architectures aim to achieve both goals of high performance and flexibility. However, existing reconfigurable array architectures require many resources without considering the specific application domain. Functional resources that take long latency and/or large area can be pipelined and/or shared among the processing elements. Therefore the hardware cost and the delay can be effectively reduced without any performance degradation for some application domains. We suggest such reconfigurable array architecture template and design space exploration flow for domain-specific optimization. Experimental results show that our approach is much more efficient both in performance and area compared to existing reconfigurable architectures.
