摘要
rf auto-oscillation induced by spin-transfer torque was investigated in Fe/Cr/Fe systems that had antiferromagnetically coupled Fe layers. As the coupling strength increased, the generation linewidth (Delta f) reduced remarkably whereas the oscillation frequency (f) and the onset current of the auto-oscillation increased. The strong antiferromagnetic coupling led to less variation in f depending on the bias current. These results indicate that the antiferromagnetic coupling allows us to reduce Delta f and to control the nonlinearity of the rf auto-oscillation. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics.
