The correlation of phase fluctuations in any type of oscillator fundamentally defines its spectral shape. However, in nonlinear oscillators, such as spin torque nano oscillators, the frequency spectrum can become particularly complex. This is specifically true when not only considering thermal but also colored $1/f$ flicker noise processes, which are crucial in the context of the oscillators long term stability. In this study, we address the frequency spectrum of spin torque oscillators in the regime of large-amplitude steady oscillations experimentally and as well theoretically. We particularly take both thermal and flicker noise into account. We perform a series of measurements of the phase noise and the spectrum on spin torque vortex oscillators, notably varying the measurement time duration. Furthermore, we develop the modelling of thermal and flicker noise in Thiele equation based simulations. We also derive the complete phase variance in the framework of the nonlinear auto-oscillator theory and deduce the actual frequency spectrum. We investigate its dependence on the measurement time duration and compare with the experimental results. Long term stability is important in several of the recent applicative developments of spin torque oscillators. This study brings some insights on how to better address this issue.

Low frequency noise close to the carrier remains little explored in spin torque nano oscillators. However, it is crucial to investigate as it limits the oscillators frequency stability. This work addresses the low offset frequency flicker noise of a
TMR-based spin-torque vortex oscillator in the regime of large amplitude steady oscillations. We first phenomenologically expand the nonlinear auto-oscillator theory aiming to reveal the properties of this noise. We then present a thorough experimental study of the oscillators $1/f$ flicker noise and discuss the results based on the theoretical predictions. Hereby, we connect the oscillators nonlinear dynamics with the concept of flicker noise and furthermore refer to the influence of a standard $1/f$ noise description based on the Hooge formula, taking into account the non-constant magnetic oscillation volume, which contributes to the magnetoresistance.
Spin transfer torque nano-oscillators are potential candidates for replacing the traditional inductor based voltage controlled oscillators in modern communication devices. Typical oscillator designs are based on trilayer magnetic tunnel junctions whi
ch are disadvantaged by low power outputs and poor conversion efficiencies. In this letter, we theoretically propose to use resonant spin filtering in pentalayer magnetic tunnel junctions as a possible route to alleviate these issues and present device designs geared toward a high microwave output power and an efficient conversion of the d.c. input power. We attribute these robust qualities to the resulting non-trivial spin current profiles and the ultra high tunnel magnetoresistance, both arising from resonant spin filtering. The device designs are based on the nonequilibrium Greens function spin transport formalism self-consistently coupled with the stochastic Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert-Slonczewskis equation and the Poissons equation. We demonstrate that the proposed structures facilitate oscillator designs featuring a large enhancement in microwave power of around $775%$ and an efficiency enhancement of over $1300%$ in comparison with typical trilayer designs. We also rationalize the optimum operating regions via an analysis of the dynamic and static device resistances. This work sets stage for pentalyer spin transfer torque nano-oscillator device designs that extenuate most of the issues faced by the typical trilayer designs.
Vortex based spin torque nano oscillators (STVOs) can present more complex dynamics than the spin torque induced gyrotropic (G) motion of the vortex core. The respective dynamic modes and the transition between them can be controlled by experimental
parameters such as the applied dc current. An interesting behavior is the stochastic transition from the G- to a dynamic C-state occurring for large current densities. Moreover, the C-state oscillations exhibit a constant active magnetic volume. We present noise measurements in the different dynamic states that allow accessing specific properties of the stochastic transition, such as the characteristic state transition frequency. Furthermore,we confirm, as theoretically predicted, an increase of flicker noise with $I_{dc}^2$ when the oscillation volume remains constant with the current. These results bring insight into the potential optimization of noise properties sought for many potential rf applications with spin torque oscillators. Furthermore, the investigated stochastic characteristics open up new potentialities, for instance in the emerging field of neuromorphic computing schemes.
We are reporting a new type of synchronization, termed dancing synchronization, between two spin-torque nano-oscillators (STNOs) coupled through spin waves. Different from the known synchronizations in which two STNOs are locked with various fixed re
lative phases, in this new synchronized state two STNOs have the same frequency, but their relative phase varies periodically within the common period, resulting in a dynamic waving pattern. The amplitude of the oscillating relative phase depends on the coupling strength of two STNOs, as well as the driven currents. The dancing synchronization turns out to be universal, and can exist in two nonlinear Van der Pol oscillators coupled both reactively and dissipativly. Our findings open doors for new functional STNO-based devices.
Spin-orbit torque nano-oscillators based on bilayers of ferromagnetic (FM) and nonmagnetic (NM) metals are ultra-compact current-controlled microwave signal sources. They serve as a convenient testbed for studies of spin-orbit torque physics and are
attractive for practical applications such as microwave assisted magnetic recording, neuromorphic computing, and chip-to-chip wireless communications. However, a major drawback of these devices is low output microwave power arising from the relatively small anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) of the FM layer. Here we experimentally show that the output power of a spin-orbit torque nano-oscillator can be enhanced by nearly three orders of magnitude without compromising its structural simplicity. Addition of a FM reference layer to the oscillator allows us to employ current-in-plane giant magnetoresistance (CIP GMR) to boost the output power of the device. This enhancement of the output power is a result of both large magnitude of GMR compared to that of AMR and different angular dependences of GMR and AMR. Our results pave the way for practical applications of spin-orbit torque nano-oscillators.
