Experimental results of rectification of a constant wave radio frequency (RF) current flowing in a single-layered ferromagnetic wire are presented. We show that a detailed external magnetic field dependence of the RF current induced a direct-current voltage spectrum. The mechanism of the rectification is discussed in a term of the spin transfer torque, and the rectification is closely related to resonant spin wave excitation with the assistant of the spin-polarized RF current. The micromagnetic simulation taking into account the spin transfer torque provides strong evidence which supports the generation of spin wave excitation by the RF current.

An anomalous Hall effect and rectification of a Hall voltage are observed by applying a radio-frequency (rf) current through a single-layered ferromagnetic wire located on a coplanar waveguide. The components of the magnetization precession, both in and perpendicular to the plane, can be detected via the Hall voltage rectification of the rf current by incorporating an additional direct (dc) current. In this paper, we propose a phenomenological model, which describes the time-dependent anisotropic magnetoresistance and time-dependent planer Hall effect. The nonlinearity of the spin dynamics accompanied by spin-waves as functions of rf and dc currents is also studied, as well as those of the magnitude and orientation of the external magnetic field.
We propose an electrically driven spin injector into normal metals and semiconductors, which is based on a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) subjected to a microwave voltage. Efficient functioning of such an injector is provided by electrically induced magnetization precession in the free layer of MTJ, which generates the spin pumping into a metallic or semiconducting overlayer. We theoretically describe the spin and charge dynamics in the CoFeB/MgO/CoFeB/Au(GaAs) heterostructures. First, the magnedynamics in the free CoFeB layer is quantified with the account of a spin-transfer torque and a voltage-controlled magnetic anisotropy. By numerically solving the magnetodynamics equation, we determine dependences of the precession amplitude on the frequency $f$ and magnitude $V_mathrm{max}$ of the ac voltage applied to the MTJ. It is found that the frequency dependence changes drastically above the threshold amplitude $V_mathrm{max} approx 200$mV, exhibiting a break at the resonance frequency $f_mathrm{res}$ due to nonlinear effects. The results obtained for the magnetization dynamics are used to describe the spin injection and pumping into the Au and GaAs overlayers. Since the generated spin current creates additional charge current owing to the inverse spin Hall effect, we also calculate distribution of the electric potential in the thick Au overlayer. The calculations show that the arising transverse voltage becomes experimentally measurable at $f = f_mathrm{res}$. Finally, we evaluate the spin accumulation in a long n$^+$-GaAs bar coupled to the MTJ and determine its temporal variation and spatial distribution along the bar. It is found that the spin accumulation under resonant excitation is large enough for experimental detection even at micrometer distances from the MTJ. This result demonstrates high efficiency of the described nanoscale spin injector.
It is shown that the excitation of charge carriers by ac electric field with zero average driving leads to a direct electric current in quantum well structures. The current emerges for both linear and circular polarization of the ac electric field and depends on the field polarization and frequency. We present a micoscopic model and an analytical theory of such a nonlinear electron transport in quantum wells with structure inversion asymmetry. In such systems, dc current is induced by ac electric field which has both the in-plane and out-of-plane components. The ac field polarized in the interface plane gives rise to a direct current if the quantum well is subjected to an in-plane static magnetic field.
A ferromagnet can resonantly absorbs rf radiation to sustain a steady precession of the magnetization around an internal or applied magnetic field. We show that under these ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) conditions, a dc voltage is generated at a normal-metal electric contact to a ferromagnet with spin-flip scattering. This mechanism allows an easy electric detection of magnetization dyamics.
We demonstrate excitation of ferromagnetic resonance in CoFeB/MgO/CoFeB magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) by the combined action of voltage-controlled magnetic anisotropy (VCMA) and spin transfer torque (ST). Our measurements reveal that GHz-frequency VCMA torque and ST in low-resistance MTJs have similar magnitudes, and thus that both torques are equally important for understanding high-frequency voltage-driven magnetization dynamics in MTJs. As an example, we show that VCMA can increase the sensitivity of an MTJ-based microwave signal detector to the sensitivity level of semiconductor Schottky diodes.
