Fabricating powerful neuromorphic chips the size of a thumb requires miniaturizing their basic units: synapses and neurons. The challenge for neurons is to scale them down to submicrometer diameters while maintaining the properties that allow for reliable information processing: high signal to noise ratio, endurance, stability, reproducibility. In this work, we show that compact spin-torque nano-oscillators can naturally implement such neurons, and quantify their ability to realize an actual cognitive task. In particular, we show that they can naturally implement reservoir computing with high performance and detail the recipes for this capability.

Neuromorphic computing takes inspiration from the brain to create energy efficient hardware for information processing, capable of highly sophisticated tasks. In this article, we make the case that building this new hardware necessitates reinventing
electronics. We show that research in physics and material science will be key to create artificial nano-neurons and synapses, to connect them together in huge numbers, to organize them in complex systems, and to compute with them efficiently. We describe how some researchers choose to take inspiration from artificial intelligence to move forward in this direction, whereas others prefer taking inspiration from neuroscience, and we highlight recent striking results obtained with these two approaches. Finally, we discuss the challenges and perspectives in neuromorphic physics, which include developing the algorithms and the hardware hand in hand, making significant advances with small toy systems, as well as building large scale networks.
Neurons in the brain behave as non-linear oscillators, which develop rhythmic activity and interact to process information. Taking inspiration from this behavior to realize high density, low power neuromorphic computing will require huge numbers of n
anoscale non-linear oscillators. Indeed, a simple estimation indicates that, in order to fit a hundred million oscillators organized in a two-dimensional array inside a chip the size of a thumb, their lateral dimensions must be smaller than one micrometer. However, despite multiple theoretical proposals, there is no proof of concept today of neuromorphic computing with nano-oscillators. Indeed, nanoscale devices tend to be noisy and to lack the stability required to process data in a reliable way. Here, we show experimentally that a nanoscale spintronic oscillator can achieve spoken digit recognition with accuracies similar to state of the art neural networks. We pinpoint the regime of magnetization dynamics leading to highest performance. These results, combined with the exceptional ability of these spintronic oscillators to interact together, their long lifetime, and low energy consumption, open the path to fast, parallel, on-chip computation based on networks of oscillators.
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.
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.
We theoretically describe the behavior of a terahertz nano-oscillator based on an anisotropic antiferromagnetic dynamical element driven by spin torque. We consider the situation when the polarization of the spin-current is perpendicular to the exter
nal magnetic field applied along the anisotropy easy-axis. We determine the domain of the parametric space (field, current) where the oscillator demonstrates chaotic dynamics. Characteristics of the chaotic regimes are analyzed using conventional techniques such as spectra of the Lyapunov exponents. We show that the threshold current of the chaos appearance is particularly low in the vicinity of the spin-flop transition. In this regime, we consider the mechanism of the chaos appearance in detail when the field is fixed and the current density increases. We show that the appearance of chaos is preceded by a regime of quasiperiodic dynamics on the surface of a two-frequency torus arising in phase space as a result of the Neimark-Sacker bifurcation.
