D. M. Edwards, O. Wessely

摘要:

引入扩展的Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert(LLG)方程来描述载流导线中的非均匀磁化动力学。在这个方程中的所有条款的系数计算量子力学的一个简单的模型,其中包括杂质散射。这是通过比较从LLG方程和显式模型计算的自旋波的能量和寿命来完成的。两个术语是特别重要的,因为它们描述了非绝热自旋转移扭矩和阻尼过程,不依赖于自旋轨道耦合。结果表明,这些条款可能有一个显着的影响,电流驱动的畴壁的速度,他们成为主导的情况下,窄壁。

英文摘要:

An extended Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) equation is introduced to describe the dynamics of inhomogeneous magnetization in a current-carrying wire. The coefficients of all the terms in this equation are calculated quantum-mechanically for a simple model which includes impurity scattering. This is done by comparing the energies and lifetimes of a spin wave calculated from the LLG equation and from the explicit model. Two terms are of particular importance since they describe non-adiabatic spin-transfer torque and damping processes which do not rely on spin-orbit coupling. It is shown that these terms may have a significant influence on the velocity of a current-driven domain wall and they become dominant in the case of a narrow wall.
