Spin-current effect on ferromagnetic resonance in patterned magnetic thin film structures
2005
We have theoretically investigated the ferromagnetic resonance in the magnetic thin film structures under the influence of spin-transfer torque using a modified Landau–Lifshitz–Gilbert equation in the linearization regime. The study shows that spin currents do not shift the resonance field but rather change both the resonance amplitude and the linewidth. Ferromagnetic resonance under this circumstance can be characterized by an effective damping constant. Depending upon its direction, the spin current can pump energy into or dissipate energy from the magnetic system. In addition, the quality factor of the resonance can be tuned by changing the current intensity. Ferromagnetic resonance excited by ac electrical currents is also theoretically demonstrated and discussed in this article.
