The spin Hall effect in a non-magnetic metal with spin–orbit coupling injects transverse spin
currents into adjacent magnetic layers, where the resulting spin transfer torque can drive …

This paper formulates a general analytic approach to the theory of microwave generation in
magnetic nano-structures driven by spin-polarized current and reviews analytic results …

Spin-torque nano-oscillators (STNOs) have emerged as an intriguing category of spintronic
devices based on spin transfer torque to excite magnetic moment dynamics. The ultra-wide …

We have directly measured phase locking of spin transfer oscillators to an injected ac
current. The oscillators lock to signals up to several hundred megahertz away from their …

We demonstrate that the lowest threshold of spin-wave excitation in an in-plane magnetized
magnetic nanocontact driven by spin-polarized current is achieved for a nonlinear self …

We present experimental evidence of subgigahertz spin-transfer oscillations in metallic
nanocontacts that are due to the translational motion of a magnetic vortex. The vortex is …

Spin-orbit torque (SOT) can drive sustained spin wave (SW) auto-oscillations in a class of
emerging microwave devices known as spin Hall nano-oscillators (SHNOs), which have …

We study the impact of the magnetic field angle on the oscillation frequency of a nanocontact
spin torque oscillator (STO) in magnetic fields up to 2.1 T. A model based on a single …

It is shown that the generation linewidth of an auto-oscillator with a nonlinear frequency shift
(ie, an auto-oscillator in which frequency depends on the oscillation amplitude) is …

In this paper, we present an overview of recent progress made in the understanding of the
spin-torque induced magnetization dynamics in nanodevices using mesoscopic …
