本文从三个技术应用的角度来研究自旋转移力矩:硬盘驱动器、磁性随机存取存储器(MRAM)和电流可调高频振荡器。在硬盘驱动器中,自旋转移力矩是噪声的来源,我们讨论了自旋转移噪声将对未来的传感器设计的影响。对于MRAM,我们评估自旋转移驱动开关的可行性。最后,我们讨论了GHz通信应用的可能性,使纳米级自旋转移振荡器。(c)2007年爱思唯尔B. V.保留所有权利。
This article examines spin-transfer torques from the perspective of three technological applications: hard disk drives, magnetic random access memory (MRAM), and current-tunable high-frequency oscillators. In hard disk drives, spin-transfer torques are a source of noise, and we discuss the implications spin-transfer noise will have on future sensor designs. For MRAM, we evaluate the feasibility of spin-transfer-driven switching. Finally, we discuss the possibility of GHz communication applications enabled by nanoscale spin-transfer oscillators.
