Current-driven excitation of magnetic multilayers

TL;DR: In this paper, a new mechanism was proposed for exciting the magnetic state of a ferromagnet, where a transfer of vectorial spin accompanied an electric current flowing perpendicular to two parallel magnetic films connected by a normal metallic spacer.

Emission of spin waves by a magnetic multilayer traversed by a current.

TL;DR: In this paper, the interaction between spin waves and itinerant electrons is considerably enhanced in the vicinity of an interface between normal and ferromagnetic layers in metallic thin films, leading to a local increase of the Gilbert damping parameter which characterizes spin dynamics.
