A spintronic method of ultra-fast broadband microwave spectrum analysis is proposed. It uses a rapidly tuned spin torque nano-oscillator (STNO), and does not require injection locking. This method treats an STNO generating a microwave signal as an element with an oscillating resistance. When an external signal is applied to this resistor for analysis, it is mixed with the signal generated by the STNO. The resulting mixed voltage contains the sum and difference frequencies, and the latter produces a DC component when the external frequency matches the frequency generated by the STNO. The mixed voltage is processed using a low pass filter to exclude the sum frequency components, and a matched filter to exclude the dependence of the resultant DC voltage on the phase difference between the two signals. It is found analytically and by numerical simulation, that the proposed spectrum analyzer has a frequency resolution at a theoretical limit in a real-time scanning bandwidth of 10~GHz, and a frequency scanning rate above 1~GHz/ns, while remaining sensitive to signal power as low as the Johnson-Nyquist thermal noise floor.

It is demonstrated experimentally that a spin-torque nano-oscillator (STNO) rapidly sweep-tuned by a bias voltage can be used for time-resolved spectrum analysis of frequency-manipulated microwave signals with complicated multi-tone spectra. The crit
ical reduction in the time of spectrum analysis comes from the naturally small time constants of a nano-sized STNO (1-100 ns). The demonstration is performed on a vortex-state STNO generating in a frequency range around 300 MHz, with frequency down-conversion and matched filtering used for signal processing. It is shown that this STNO-based spectrum analyzer can perform analysis of multi-tone signals, and signals with rapidly changing frequency components with time resolution on a $mu$s time scale and frequency resolution limited only by the bandwidth theorem. The proposed concept of rapid time-resolved spectrum analysis can be implemented with any type of micro and nano-scale frequency-swept oscillators having low time constants and high oscillation frequency.
Spin torque and spin Hall effect nanooscillators generate high intensity spin wave auto oscillations on the nanoscale enabling novel microwave applications in spintronics, magnonics, and neuromorphic computing. For their operation, these devices requ
ire externally generated spin currents either from an additional ferromagnetic layer or a material with a high spin Hall angle. Here we demonstrate highly coherent field and current tunable microwave signals from nanoconstrictions in single 15 and 20 nm thick permalloy layers. Using a combination of spin torque ferromagnetic resonance measurements, scanning microBrillouin light scattering microscopy, and micromagnetic simulations, we identify the autooscillations as emanating from a localized edge mode of the nanoconstriction driven by spin orbit torques. Our results pave the way for greatly simplified designs of auto oscillating nanomagnetic systems only requiring a single ferromagnetic layer.
A theoretical study of delayed feedback in spin-torque nano-oscillators is presented. A macrospin geometry is considered, where self-sustained oscillations are made possible by spin transfer torques associated with spin currents flowing perpendicular
to the film plane. By tuning the delay and amplification of the self-injected signal, we identify dynamical regimes in this system such as chaos, switching between precession modes with complex transients, and oscillator death. Such delayed feedback schemes open up a new field of exploration for such oscillators, where the complex transient states might find important applications in information processing.
We numerically study reservoir computing on a spin-torque oscillator (STO) array, describing the magnetization dynamics of the STO array by a nonlinear oscillator model. The STOs exhibit synchronized oscillation due to coupling by magnetic dipolar fi
elds. We show that reservoir computing can be performed using the synchronized oscillation state. The performance can be improved by increasing the number of STOs. The performance becomes highest at the boundary between the synchronized and disordered states. Using an STO array, we can achieve higher performance than that of an echo-state network with similar number of units. This result indicates that STO arrays are promising for hardware implementation of reservoir computing.
Energy loss due to ohmic heating is a major bottleneck limiting down-scaling and speed of nano-electronic devices, and harvesting ohmic heat for signal processing is a major challenge in modern electronics. Here we demonstrate that thermal gradients
arising from ohmic heating can be utilized for excitation of coherent auto-oscillations of magnetization and for generation of tunable microwave signals. The heat-driven dynamics is observed in $mathrm{Y_{3}Fe_{5}O_{12}/Pt}$ bilayer nanowires where ohmic heating of the Pt layer results in injection of pure spin current into the $mathrm{Y_{3}Fe_{5}O_{12}}$ layer. This leads to excitation of auto-oscillations of the $mathrm{Y_{3}Fe_{5}O_{12}}$ magnetization and generation of coherent microwave radiation. Our work paves the way towards spin caloritronic devices for microwave and magnonic applications.
