Role of the Non-Collinear Polarizer Layer in Spin Transfer Torque
Switching Processes
   [PDF]

Chun-Yeol You, Myung-Hwa Jung
We have recently reported that the spin transfer torque switching current density is very sensitive to not only the junction sizes but also the exchange stiffness constants of the free layer according to the micromagnetic simulations. The results are very complicate and far from the macro-spin model because of the non-coherent spin switching processes. The dependence of the switching current density on the junction sizes and the exchange stiffness constants becomes systematic when we employ the non-collinear polarizer layer. It is found that the non-collinear polarizer layer enhances the coherency of the spin dynamics by breaking symmetric spin configurations.
