Physical implementation of coherently-coupled oscillator networks

August 13, 2015
Author(s)
Matthew R. Pufall, William H. Rippard, Gyorgy Csaba, Wolfgang Porod, George Bourianoff, Dmitri Nikonov
We present a combined experimental and simulation study of the physical implementation of coherently coupled oscillator networks composed of spin-torque oscillators (STOs). Based on published works and on our recent experiments, we review the behavior of

Nanoscale Spin Valve Josephson Junction Devices

April 14, 2015
Author(s)
Burm Baek, William H. Rippard, Matthew R. Pufall, Samuel P. Benz, Stephen E. Russek, Horst Rogalla, Paul D. Dresselhaus
Traditionally, superconductivity and magnetism have had a mutually exclusive relationship. However, the physics of superconductor-ferromagnet hybrid structures turned out to be far from being simply destructive, which has led to the hope of a new breed of

Spin-transfer torque switching observed in nanopillar superconducting-magnetic hybrid Josephson junctions

January 9, 2015
Author(s)
Burm Baek, William H. Rippard, Matthew R. Pufall, Samuel P. Benz, Stephen E. Russek, Horst Rogalla, Paul D. Dresselhaus
Combining superconducting and magnetic materials to create novel superconducting devices has been motivated by the discovery of the Josephson critical current (Ics) oscillations with magnetic layer thickness and the demonstration of devices with switchable

Correlation of anomalous write error rate and ferromagnetic resonance spectrum in spin-transfer-torque-magnetic-random-access-memory devices containing in-plane free layers

Eric R. Evarts, Ranko R. Heindl, William H. Rippard, Matthew R. Pufall
In a small fraction of magnetic-tunnel-junction-based MRAM devices with in-plane free layers, the write error rates (WERs) are higher than expected on the basis of the macrospin or quasi-uniform magnetization reversal models. In devices with increased WERs

Time Required to Injection-Lock Spin Torque Nanoscale Oscillators

October 29, 2013
Author(s)
William H. Rippard, Matthew R. Pufall, Anthony B. Kos
We have injection-locked a spin-transfer oscillator to a second-harmonic electrical input signal and measured the relative phase and amplitude of the device output as a function of DC current under steady-state conditions. The relative phase of the device

Properties of magnetic barrier structures for superconducting-magnetic hybrid Josephson junctions

July 7, 2013
Author(s)
Burm Baek, Samuel P. Benz, William H. Rippard, Stephen E. Russek, Paul D. Dresselhaus, Horst Rogalla, Matthew R. Pufall
If Josephson and spintronic technologies can be successfully integrated to produce a cryogenic memory that can be controlled with single-flux quantum pulses, then they may enable ultra-low-power, high-speed computing. We have developed hybrid Josephson
