  • Patent number: 10879453
    Abstract: A spin oscillator device including a first spin Hall effect nano-oscillator, SHNO, having an extended multilayered magnetic thin-film stack, wherein a nano-constriction, NC, is provided in the magnetic film stack providing an SHNO including a magnetic free-layer and a spin Hall effect layer, and having a nanoscopic region, wherein the NC is configured to focus electric current to the nanoscopic region, configured to generate the necessary current densities needed to excite magnetization auto-oscillations, MAO, in the magnetic free layer, wherein a circumferential magnetic field surrounds the NC, wherein an externally applied field with a substantial out-of-plane component is configured to control the spatial extension of the MAO towards a second spin oscillator device, which is arranged in MAO communication and synchronized to the first NC.

  • Publication number: 20190280191
    Abstract: A spin oscillator device (1) comprising a first spin Hall effect nano-oscillator, SHNO (2), having an extended multi-layered magnetic thin-film stack (2), wherein a nano-constriction, NC, (6) is provided in said magnetic film stack (2) providing an SHNO(2, 6) comprising a magnetic free-layer (3) and a spin Hall effect layer, and having a nanoscopic region, wherein the NC (6) is configured to focus electric current (Idc) to the nanoscopic region, configured to generate the necessary current densities needed to excite magnetization auto-oscillations, MAO, in the magnetic free layer (3), wherein a circumferential magnetic field (HOe) surrounds the NC (6), wherein an externally applied field (Hext) with a substantial out-of-plane component is configured to control the spatial extension of the MAO towards a second spin oscillator device (NCn), which is arranged in MAO communication and synchronized to the first NC (NC1).
