Effect of nonadiabatic spin transfer torque on domain wall resonance frequency and mass

The dynamics of a magnetic domain wall in a semi circular nanowire loop is studied by an analytical model and micromagnetic simulations. We find a damped sinusoidal oscillation of the domain wall for small displacement angles around its equilibrium position under an external magnetic field in the absence of currents. By studying the effect of current induced nonadiabatic spin transfer torque on the magnetic domain wall resonance frequency and mass, a red shift is found in the resonance frequency and domain wall mass increases by increasing the ratio of nonadiabatic spin torque to adiabatic contribution above 1.

Effect of Nonlocal Spin-Transfer Torque on Current-Induced Magnetization Dynamics

Using the self-consistent model, we present nonlocal spin-transfer effects caused by the feedback between inhomogeneous magnetization and spin-transfer torque on the current-induced magnetization dynamics in nanomagnets. The nonlocal effects can substantially improve the coherence time of precession in nanomagnets and thus reduce the linewidth of power spectrum. This narrow linewidth results from the nonlinear damping of spin-waves due to the nonlocal spin torque which is inherent and thus should be considered in future experiments.

Current-Induced Resonant Motion of a Magnetic Vortex Core: Effect of Nonadiabatic Spin Torque

The current-induced resonant excitation of a magnetic vortex core is investigated by means of analytical and micromagnetic calculations. We find that the radius and the phase shift of the resonant motion are not correctly described by the analytical equations because of the dynamic distortion of a vortex core. In contrast, the initial tilting angle of a vortex core is free from the distortion and determined by the nonadiabaticity of the spin torque. It is insensitive to experimentally uncontrollable current-induced in-plane Oersted field. We propose that a time-resolved imaging of the very initial trajectory of a core is essential to experimentally estimate the nonadiabaticity.

Attempt frequency of magnetization in nanomagnets with thin-film geometry

Solving the stochastic Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation numerically, we investigate the effect of the potential landscape on the attempt frequency of magnetization in nanomagnets with the thin-film geometry. Numerical estimates of the attempt frequency are analyzed in comparison with theoretical predictions from the Fokker-Planck equation for the Neel-Brown model. It is found that for a nanomagnet with the thin-film geometry, theoretically predicted values for the universal case are in excellent agreement with numerical estimates.

Current-induced domain wall motion in a nanowire with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy

We study theoretically the current-induced magnetic domain wall motion in a metallic nanowire with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. The anisotropy can reduce the critical current density of the domain wall motion. We explain the reduction mechanism and identify the maximal reduction conditions. This result facilitates both fundamental studies and device applications of the current- induced domain wall motion.

Spin torque and force due to current for general spin textures

Non-adiabatic correction to spin transfer torque arising from fast-varying spin texture is calculated treating conduction electron fully quantum mechanically. The torque is non-local in space, and is shown to equivalent to a force (due to momentum transfer) acting on the center of mass of the texture. Another kind of force exists in the adiabatic regime, and is identified to be of topological origin. These forces are shown to be the counter reaction of electric transport properties, resistivity and Hall effect, respectively.
