Journal ArticleDOI
Current induced torques and interfacial spin-orbit coupling: Semiclassical modeling
TL;DR: In this paper, a model based on the Boltzmann equation that unifies these approaches is presented. But the model fails to describe the experimentally observed thickness dependencies, which is a limitation of the drift-diffusion model.
Journal Article
Current-induced skyrmion dynamics in constricted geometries
TL;DR: In this article, the current-induced motion of skyrmions in the presence of geometrical boundaries is very different from that in an infinite plane, and it is shown that in a channel of finite width, transverse confinement results in steady-state characteristics of the SKyrmion velocity as a function of current that are similar to those of domain walls in ferromagnets, whereas the transient behaviour depends on the initial distance of the skyrmsion from the boundary.
Journal ArticleDOI
Currents, torques, and polarization factors in magnetic tunnel junctions
TL;DR: In this article, the transfer-Hamiltonian method is applied to magnetic tunnel junctions having a general degree of atomic disorder and the results reveal a close relationship between magnetoconduction and voltage-driven pseudotorque, and also provide a means of predicting the thickness dependence of tunnel-polarization factors.

TL;DR: An effective and simple method to avoid the clogging of skyrmionic bits is demonstrated, which ensures the elimination of skyrsion bits beyond the reading element.

Electrical switching of vortex core in a magnetic disk
Keisuke Yamada,Shinya Kasai,Yoshinobu Nakatani,Kensuke Kobayashi,Hiroshi Kohno,André Thiaville,Teruo Ono +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate the electrical switching of the core magnetisation by utilizing the current-driven resonant dynamics of the vortex; the core switching is triggered by a strong dynamic field which is produced locally by a rotational core motion at a high speed of several hundred m/s.
