Many key electronic technologies (e.g., large-scale computing, machine learning, and superconducting electronics) require new memories that are fast, reliable, energy-efficient, and of low-impedance at the same time, which has remained a challenge. Non-volatile magnetoresistive random access memories (MRAMs) driven by spin-orbit torques (SOTs) have promise to be faster and more energy-efficient than conventional semiconductor and spin-transfer-torque magnetic memories. This work reports that the spin Hall effect of low-resistivity Au0.25Pt0.75 thin films enables ultrafast antidamping-torque switching of SOT-MRAM devices for current pulse widths as short as 200 ps. If combined with industrial-quality lithography and already-demonstrated interfacial engineering, our results show that an optimized MRAM cell based on Au0.25Pt0.75 can have energy-efficient, ultrafast, and reliable switching, e.g. a write energy of < 1 fJ (< 50 fJ) for write error rate of 50% (<1e-5) for 1 ns pulses. The antidamping torque switching of the Au0.25Pt0.75 devices is 10 times faster than expected from a rigid macrospin model, most likely because of the fast micromagnetics due to the enhanced non-uniformity within the free layer. These results demonstrate the feasibility of Au0.25Pt0.75-based SOT-MRAMs as a candidate for ultrafast, reliable, energy-efficient, low-impedance, and unlimited-endurance memory.

Magnetic skyrmions are knot-like quasiparticles. They are candidates for non-volatile data storage in which information is moved between fixed read and write terminals. Read-out operation of skyrmion-based spintronic devices will rely upon electrical
detection of a single magnetic skyrmion within a nanostructure. Here, we present Pt/Co/Ir nanodiscs which support skyrmions at room temperature. We measured the Hall resistivity whilst simultaneously imaging the spin texture using magnetic scanning transmission x-ray microscopy (STXM). The Hall resistivity is correlated to both the presence and size of the skyrmion. The size-dependent part matches the expected anomalous Hall signal when averaging the magnetisation over the entire disc. We observed a resistivity contribution which only depends on the number and sign of skyrmion-like objects present in the disc. Each skyrmion gives rise to 22$pm$2 n{Omega} cm irrespective of its size. This contribution needs to be considered in all-electrical detection schemes applied to skyrmion-based devices.
We demonstrate theoretically that in a spintronic diode (SD), having a free magnetic layer with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy of the first and second order and no external bias magnetic field, the out-of-plane regime of magnetization precession c
an be excited by sufficiently large (exceeding a certain threshold) RF signals with the frequencies <~250 MHz. We also show that such a device can operate as a broadband energy harvester capable of converting incident RF power into a DC power with the conversion efficiency of ~5%. The developed analytical theory of the bias-free SD operation can be used for the optimization of high-efficiency RF detectors and energy harvesters based on SDs.
We study mutual synchronization in double nanoconstriction-based spin Hall nano-oscillators (SHNOs) under weak in-plane fields ($mu_0H_mathrm{IP}$ = 30-40 mT) and also investigate its angular dependence. We compare SHNOs with different nano-constrict
ion spacings of 300 and 900 nm. In all devices, mutual synchronization occurs below a certain critical angle, which is higher for the 300 nm spacing than for the 900 nm spacing, reflecting the stronger coupling at shorter distances. Alongside the synchronization, we observe a strong second harmonic consistent with predictions that the synchronization may be mediated by the propagation of second harmonic spin waves. However, although Brillouin Light Scattering microscopy confirms the synchronization, it fails to detect any related increase of the second harmonic. Micromagnetic simulations instead explain the angular dependent synchronization as predominantly due to magneto-dipolar coupling between neighboring SHNOs.
We demonstrate a novel concept for operating graphene-based Hall sensors using an alternating current (AC) modulated gate voltage, which provides three important advantages compared to Hall sensors under static operation: 1) The sensor sensitivity ca
n be doubled by utilizing both n- and p-type conductance. 2) A static magnetic field can be read out at frequencies in the kHz range, where the 1/f noise is lower compared to the static case. 3) The off-set voltage in the Hall signal can be reduced. This significantly increases the signal-to-noise ratio compared to Hall sensors without a gate electrode. A minimal detectable magnetic field Bmin down to 290 nT/sqrt(Hz) and sensitivity up to 0.55 V/VT was found for Hall sensors fabricated on flexible foil. This clearly outperforms state-of-the-art flexible Hall sensors and is comparable to the values obtained by the best rigid III/V semiconductor Hall sensors.
Since the first graphene layer was fabricated in the early 2000s, graphene properties have been studied extensively both experimentally and theoretically. However, when comparing the many resistivity models reported in literature, several discrepanci
es can be found, as well as a number of inconsistencies between formulas. In this paper, we revise the main scattering mechanisms in graphene, based on theory and goodness of fit to in-house experimental data. In particular, a step-by-step evaluation of the interaction between electrons and optical phonons is carried out, where we demonstrate that the process of optical phonon emission scattering is completely suppressed for all low-field applications and all temperatures in the range of interest, as opposed to what is often reported in literature. Finally, we identify the best scattering models based on the goodness of fit to experimental data.
