Spin-torque induced oscillations in the point contact geometry (small diameter)

Frequency dependence on the (reduced) current strength for the spin-torque induced magnetization oscillation in the point contact geometry.

Spin-torque induced oscillations in the point contact geometry (large diameter)

Gray-scale snapshots of the out-of-plane magnetization component for one of the localized oscillation modes induced in a Py layer by the spin-polarized current injected via the point contact with the diameter 80 nm.
