Micromagnetic simulation of exchange coupled ferri-/ferromagnetic heterostructures.

ABSTRACT: Exchange coupled ferri-/ferromagnetic heterostructures are a possible material composition for future magnetic storage and sensor applications. In order to understand the driving mechanisms in the demagnetization process, we perform micromagnetic simulations by employing the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation. The magnetization reversal is dominated by pinning events within the amorphous ferrimagnetic layer and at the interface between the ferrimagnetic and the ferromagnetic layer. The shape of the computed magnetization reversal loop corresponds well with experimental data, if a spatial variation of the exchange coupling across the ferri-/ferromagnetic interface is assumed.

Micromagnetic Simulations of Chaotic Ferromagnetic Nanofiber Networks.

Project description:Electrospinning can be used to create nanofibers with diameters of typically a few tens to a few hundred nanometers. While pure polymers are often electrospun, it is also possible to use polymer blends or to include nanoparticles. In this way, e.g., magnetic nanofiber networks can be created with a certain diameter distribution, random fiber orientations, and random crossing positions and angles. Here we present for the first time micromagnetic simulations of small parts of stochastically oriented nanofiber networks. Magnetization reversal mechanisms are investigated for different local spatial distributions; mutual influences of neighboring magnetic fibers due to dipolar interactions are depicted. This study serves as a base for the possible use of such stochastic nanofiber networks in the research area of neuro-inspired materials.

Terahertz Emission Spectroscopy of Ultrafast Coupled Spin and Charge Dynamics in Nanometer Ferromagnetic Heterostructures.

Project description:Due to its high sensitivity and because it does not rely on the magneto-optical response, terahertz (THz) emission spectroscopy has been used as a powerful time-resolved tool for investigating ultrafast demagnetization and spin current dynamics in nanometer-thick ferromagnetic (FM)/heavy metal (HM) heterostructures. Here, by changing the order of the conductive HM coating on the FM nanometer film, the dominant electric dipole contribution to the laser-induced THz radiation can be unraveled from the ultrafast magnetic dipole. Furthermore, to take charge equilibration into account, we separate the femtosecond laser-induced spin-to-charge converted current and the instantaneous discharging current within the illuminated area. The THz emission spectroscopy gives us direct information into the coupled spin and charge dynamics during the first moments of the light-matter interaction. Our results also open up new perspectives to manipulate and optimize the ultrafast charge current for promising high-performance and broadband THz radiation.

Spin-wave duplexer studied by finite-element micromagnetic simulation.

Project description:We conceptually designed a robust nano-scale waveguide structure suitable for potential use as a spin-wave duplexer that allows signal propagation only of selected narrow-band frequencies and duplex transmission in a three-port device comprising a receiver, a transmitter, and their common antenna. The waveguide structure combines three different arms and a circular ring, both made of nanostrip waveguides and a single magnetic material for reliably controllable propagations of spin waves. We attribute the observed duplex transmission of spin waves of narrow pass bands to scattering of spin waves by edge solitons placed at contact areas between the arms and the circular ring. This work proposes the first concept of nano-scale magnonic duplexers operating beyond GHz-frequency ranges.

Strongly exchange-coupled and surface-state-modulated magnetization dynamics in Bi2Se3/yttrium iron garnet heterostructures.

Project description:Harnessing the spin-momentum locking of topological surface states in conjunction with magnetic materials is the first step to realize novel topological insulator-based devices. Here, we report strong interfacial coupling in Bi2Se3/yttrium iron garnet (YIG) bilayers manifested as large interfacial in-plane magnetic anisotropy (IMA) and enhancement of damping probed by ferromagnetic resonance. The interfacial IMA and damping enhancement reaches a maximum when the Bi2Se3 film approaches its two-dimensional limit, indicating that topological surface states play an important role in the magnetization dynamics of YIG. Temperature-dependent ferromagnetic resonance of Bi2Se3/YIG reveals signatures of the magnetic proximity effect of TC as high as 180?K, an emerging low-temperature perpendicular magnetic anisotropy competing the high-temperature IMA, and an increasing exchange effective field of YIG steadily increasing toward low temperature. Our study sheds light on the effects of topological insulators on magnetization dynamics, essential for the development of topological insulator-based spintronic devices.

Tunable quantum anomalous Hall effects in ferromagnetic van der Waals heterostructures.

Project description:The quantum anomalous Hall effect (QAHE) has unique advantages in topotronic applications, but it is still challenging to realize the QAHE with tunable magnetic and topological properties for building functional devices. Through systematic first-principles calculations, we predict that the in-plane magnetization induced QAHE with Chern numbers C = ±1 and the out-of-plane magnetization induced QAHE with high Chern numbers C = ±3 can be realized in a single material candidate, which is composed of van der Waals (vdW) coupled Bi and MnBi2Te4 monolayers. The switching between different phases of QAHE can be controlled in multiple ways, such as applying strain or (weak) magnetic field or twisting the vdW materials. The prediction of an experimentally available material system hosting robust, highly tunable QAHE will stimulate great research interest in the field. Our work opens a new avenue for the realization of tunable QAHE and provides a practical material platform for the development of topological electronics.

Chiral-Bubble-Induced Topological Hall Effect in Ferromagnetic Topological Insulator Heterostructures.

Project description:We report compelling evidence of an emergent topological Hall effect (THE) from chiral bubbles in a two-dimensional uniaxial ferromagnet, V-doped Sb2Te3 heterostructure. The sign of THE signal is determined by the net curvature of domain walls in different domain configurations, and the strength of THE signal is correlated with the density of nucleation or pinned bubble domains. The experimental results are in good agreement with the integrated linear transport and Monte Carlo simulations, corroborating the emergent gauge field at chiral magnetic bubbles. Our findings not only reveal a general mechanism of THE in two-dimensional ferromagnets but also pave the way for the creation and manipulation of topological spin textures for spintronic applications.

Van der Waals engineering of ferromagnetic semiconductor heterostructures for spin and valleytronics.

Project description:The integration of magnetic material with semiconductors has been fertile ground for fundamental science as well as of great practical interest toward the seamless integration of information processing and storage. We create van der Waals heterostructures formed by an ultrathin ferromagnetic semiconductor CrI3 and a monolayer of WSe2. We observe unprecedented control of the spin and valley pseudospin in WSe2, where we detect a large magnetic exchange field of nearly 13 T and rapid switching of the WSe2 valley splitting and polarization via flipping of the CrI3 magnetization. The WSe2 photoluminescence intensity strongly depends on the relative alignment between photoexcited spins in WSe2 and the CrI3 magnetization, because of ultrafast spin-dependent charge hopping across the heterostructure interface. The photoluminescence detection of valley pseudospin provides a simple and sensitive method to probe the intriguing domain dynamics in the ultrathin magnet, as well as the rich spin interactions within the heterostructure.

Gate-Tunable Spin Transport and Giant Electroresistance in Ferromagnetic Graphene Vertical Heterostructures.

Project description:Controlling tunneling properties through graphene vertical heterostructures provides advantages in achieving large conductance modulation which has been known as limitation in lateral graphene device structures. Despite of intensive research on graphene vertical heterosturctures for recent years, the potential of spintronics based on graphene vertical heterostructures remains relatively unexplored. Here, we present an analytical device model for graphene-based spintronics by using ferromagnetic graphene in vertical heterostructures. We consider a normal or ferroelectric insulator as a tunneling layer. The device concept yields a way of controlling spin transport through the vertical heterostructures, resulting in gate-tunable spin-switching phenomena. Also, we revealed that a 'giant' resistance emerges through a ferroelectric insulating layer owing to the anti-parallel configuration of ferromagnetic graphene layers by means of electric fields via gate and bias voltages. Our findings discover the prospect of manipulating the spin transport properties in vertical heterostructures without use of magnetic fields.

Hybrid spin Hall nano-oscillators based on ferromagnetic metal/ferrimagnetic insulator heterostructures.

Project description:Spin-Hall nano-oscillators (SHNOs) are promising spintronic devices to realize current controlled GHz frequency signals in nanoscale devices for neuromorphic computing and creating Ising systems. However, traditional SHNOs devices based on transition metals have high auto-oscillation threshold currents as well as low quality factors and output powers. Here we demonstrate a new type of hybrid SHNO based on a permalloy (Py) ferromagnetic-metal nanowire and low-damping ferrimagnetic insulator, in the form of epitaxial lithium aluminum ferrite (LAFO) thin films. The superior characteristics of such SHNOs are associated with the excitation of larger spin-precession angles and volumes. We further find that the presence of the ferrimagnetic insulator enhances the auto-oscillation amplitude of spin-wave edge modes, consistent with our micromagnetic modeling. This hybrid SHNO expands spintronic applications, including providing new means of coupling multiple SHNOs for neuromorphic computing and advancing magnonics.

Giant antidamping orbital torque originating from the orbital Rashba-Edelstein effect in ferromagnetic heterostructures.

Project description:Enhancing the in-plane current-induced torque efficiency in inversion-symmetry-breaking ferromagnetic heterostructures is of both fundamental and practical interests for emerging magnetic memory device applications. Here, we present an interface-originated magnetoelectric effect, the orbital Rashba-Edelstein effect, for realizing large torque efficiency in Pt/Co/SiO2/Pt films with strong perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA). The key element is a pronounced Co 3d orbital splitting due to asymmetric orbital hybridization at the Pt/Co and Co/SiO2 interfaces, which not only stabilizes the PMA but also produces a large orbital torque upon the Co magnetization with current injection. The torque efficiency is found to be strongly magnetization direction- and temperature-dependent, and can reach up to 2.83 at room temperature, which is several times to one order of magnitude larger than those previously reported. This work highlights the active role of the orbital anisotropy for efficient torque generation and indicates a route for torque efficiency optimization through orbital engineering.
