An anomalous (inverse) spin accumulation in the nonmagnetic spacer may build up when the spin valve consists of magnetic films having different spin symmetries. This leads to wavy-like dependence of spin-transfer torque on the angle between magnetizations, as predicted by spin-dependent diffusive transport model, and also confirmed experimentally. Making use of these predictions, we have numerically studied the magnetization dynamics in presence of such a wavy-torque in Co(8 nm)/Cu(10 nm)/Py(8 nm) nanopillar, considering geometry with extended and etched Co layer. In both cases we specify conditions for the out-of-plane precession to appear in absence of external magnetic field and neglecting thermal fluctuations. We prove the assumption of wavy-like torque angular dependence to be fully consistent with experimental observations. We also show that some features reported experimentally, like nonlinear slope of frequency vs. current behavior, are beyond the applicability range of macrospin approximation and can be explained only by means of full micromagnetic analysis.

Angular variation of giant magnetoresistance and spin-transfer torque in metallic spin-valve heterostructures is analyzed theoretically in the limit of diffusive transport. It is shown that the spin-transfer torque in asymmetric spin valves can vanis
h in non-collinear magnetic configurations, and such a non-standard behavior of the torque is generally associated with a non-monotonic angular dependence of the giant magnetoresistance, with a global minimum at a non-collinear magnetic configuration.
We present a study of the effects of inelastic scattering on the transport properties of various nanoscale devices, namely H$_2$ molecules sandwiched between Pt contacts, and a spin-valve made by an organic molecule attached to model half-metal ferro
magnetic current/voltage probes. In both cases we use a tight-binding Su-Schrieffer-Heeger Hamiltonian and the inelastic effects are treated with a multi-channel method, including Pauli exclusion principle. In the case of the H$_2$ molecule, we find that inelastic backscattering is responsible for the drop of the differential conductance at biases larger than the excitation energy of the lower of the molecular phonon modes. In the case of the spin-valve, we investigate the different spin-currents and the magnetoresistance as a function of the position of the Fermi level with respect to the spin-polarized band edges. In general inelastic scattering reduces the spin-polarization of the current and consequently the magnetoresistance.
Magnetization switching due to a current-pulse in symmetric and asymmetric spin valves is studied theoretically within the macrospin model. The switching process and the corresponding switching parameters are shown to depend significantly on the puls
e duration and also on the interplay of the torques due to spin transfer and external magnetic field. This interplay leads to peculiar features in the corresponding phase diagram. These features in standard spin valves, where the spin transfer torque stabilizes one of the magnetic configurations (either parallel or antiparallel) and destabilizes the opposite one, differ from those in nonstandard (asymmetric) spin valves, where both collinear configurations are stable for one current orientation and unstable for the opposite one. Following this we propose a scheme of ultrafast current-induced switching in nonstandard spin valves, based on a sequence of two current pulses.
Recent study of a high-mobility 2D hole gas in a strained Ge quantum well revealed strong transport anisotropy in the quantum Hall regime when the magnetic field was tilted away from the sample normal. In the present study we demonstrate that the ani
sotropy persists to such high temperatures and filling factors that quantum oscillations are no longer observed. This finding rules out the formation of a stripe phase as a possible origin for the observed anisotropy. However, we also show that the observed anisotropy is not consistent with other known anisotropies, such as those arising from finite thickness effects or surface roughness.
We investigate effects of spin-orbit splitting on electronic transport in a spin valve consisting of a large quantum dot defined on a two-dimensional electron gas with two ferromagnetic contacts. In the presence of both structure inversion asymmetry
(SIA) and bulk inversion asymmetry (BIA) a giant anisotropy in the spin-relaxation times has been predicted. We show how such an anisotropy affects the electronic transport properties such as the angular magnetoresistance and the spin-transfer torque. Counterintuitively, anisotropic spin-relaxation processes sometimes enhance the spin accumulation.
