AbstractNiFe-based vortex spin-torque nano-oscillators (STNO) have been shown to be rich dynamic systems which can operate as efficient frequency generators and detectors, but with a limitation in frequency determined by the gyrotropic frequency, typically sub-GHz. In this report, we present a detailed analysis of the nature of the higher order spin wave modes which exist in the Super High Frequency range (3–30 GHz). This is achieved via micromagnetic simulations and electrical characterisation in magnetic tunnel junctions, both directly via the spin-diode effect and indirectly via the measurement of the coupling with the gyrotropic critical current. The excitation mechanism and spatial profile of the modes are shown to have a complex dependence on the vortex core position. Additionally, the inter-mode coupling between the fundamental gyrotropic mode and the higher order modes is shown to reduce or enhance the effective damping depending upon the sense of propagation of the confined spin wave.

The magnetoresistance of Fe/MgO/Fe magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) was studied taking into consideration image forces. For MTJs with an MgO insulator, explanations are given of the giant tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) effect and the effect of the increasing TMR with an increase in MgO insulator thickness. It is demonstrated that the electron current density through MTJs can be high enough to switch the magnetization of a ferromagnetic electrode.
