The electron transport properties of hybrid ferromagnetic| normal metal structures such as
multilayers and spin valves depend on the relative orientation of the magnetization direction …

Since the discovery of antiferromagnetic type interlayer coupling in 1986 and of 'Giant
Magnetoresistance'in 1988. numerous systems have been investigated. Here we give a …

A new mechanism is proposed for exciting the magnetic state of a ferromagnet. Assuming
ballistic conditions and using WKB wave functions, we predict that a transfer of vectorial spin …

Spin-transfer torques occur in magnetic heterostructures because the transverse component
of a spin current that flows from a nonmagnet into a ferromagnet is absorbed at the interface …

A theory of interlayer exchange coupling is presented. A detailed and comprehensive
discussion of the various aspects of the problem is given. The interlayer exchange coupling …

This book, in the broadest sense, is an application of quantum mechanics and statistical
mechanics to the field of magnetism. Under certain well described conditions, an immensely …

Ultrathin magnetic metallic films have beenintensity investigated and have resulted in a wide
range of exciting studies which are attractive to scientists working in the basic aspects of low …

A long-range dynamic interaction between ferromagnetic films separated by normal-metal
spacers is reported, which is communicated by nonequilibrium spin currents. It is measured …

This chapter contains a brief review of the giant magnetoresistance (GMR) effect exhibited
by magnetic multilayers, granular alloys, and related materials. Subjects covered include a …

Much of our understanding of the atomic-scale magnetic structure and the dynamical
properties of solids and liquids was gained from neutron-scattering studies. Elastic and …
