26 Jun 2006 | | Subject: | Mesoscopic Systems and Quantum Hall Effect | | Abstract: | We present here a self consistent solution of quantum transport, using the Non Equilibrium Green’s Function (NEGF) method, and magnetization dynamics, using the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) formulation. We have applied this model to study current induced magnetic switching due to `spin torque’ in a device where the electronic transport is ballistic and the free magnetic layer is sandwiched between two anti-parallel ferromagnetic contacts. The device shows clear hysteretic current-voltage characteristics, at room temperature, with a sharp transition between the bistable states and hence can be used as a non-volatile memory. We show that the proposed design may allow reducing the switching current by an order of magnitude. | | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0606648 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
