Current induced magnetization switching and resistance associated with domain walls pinned in nanoconstrictions have both been previously reported in (Ga,Mn)As based devices, but using very dissimilar experimental schemes and device geometries . Here we report on the simultaneous observation of both effects in a single nanodevice, which constitutes a significant step forward towards the eventual realization of spintronic devices which make use of domain walls to store, transport, and manipulate information.
We have found that the current rectification effect in triple layer (double barrier) (Ga,Mn)As magnetic tunnel junctions strongly depends on the magnetization alignment. The direction as well as the amplitude of the rectification changes with the ali
Electrical current manipulation of magnetization switching through spin-orbital coupling in ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)As Hall bar devices has been investigated. The efficiency of the current-controlled magnetization switching is found to be
We show that the magnetization of a thin ferromagnetic (Ga,Mn)As layer can be modulated by picosecond acoustic pulses. In this approach a picosecond strain pulse injected into the structure induces a tilt of the magnetization vector M, followed by th
We present a study of photo-excited magnetization dynamics in ferromagnetic (Ga,Mn)As films observed by time-resolved magneto-optical measurements. The magnetization precession triggered by linearly polarized optical pulses in the absence of an exter
Kerr rotation and Superconducting QUantum Interference Device (SQUID) magnetometry measurements were performed on ultrathin (Ga$_{0.95}$Mn$_{0.05}$)As layers. The thinner layers (below 250 AA) exhibit magnetic properties different than those of thick
