Micromagnetic Simulations for Spin Transfer Torque in Magnetic Multilayers

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

We investigate the spin transfer torque (STT) in the magnetic multilayer structures with micromagnetic simulations. We implement the STT contribution for the magnetic multilayer structures in addition to the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) micromagnetic simulators. Not only the Sloncewski STT term, the zero, first, and second order field- like terms are also considered, and the effects of the Oersted field by the current are addressed. We determine the switching current densities of the free layer with the exchange biased synthetic ferrimagnetic reference layers for various cases.
