Symmetry ensemble theory of spin wave emitting effectdriven by current in nanoscale magnetic multilayer

<正>This paper proposes a symmetry ensemble model for the magnetic dynamics caused by spin transfer torque in nanoscale pseudo-spin-valves,in which individual spin moments in the free layer are considered as subsystems to form a spinor ensemble.The magnetization dynamics equation of the ensemble was developed.By analytically investigating the equation,many magnetization dynamics properties excited by polarized current reported in experiments,such as double spin wave modes and the abrupt frequency jump,can be successfully explained.It is pointed out that an external field is not necessary for spin wave emitting(SWE) and a novel perpendicular configuration structure can provide much higher SWE efficiency in zero magnetic field.

Dependences of spin polarization on the control parameters in the spin-polarized injection through the magnetic p-n junction

Effective spin-polarized injection from magnetic semiconductor （MS） to nonmagnetic semiconductor （NMS） has been highlighted in recent years. In this paper we study theoretically the dependence of nonequilibrium spin polarization （NESP） in NMS during spin-polarized injection through the magnetic p-n junction. Based on the theory in semiconductor physics, a model is established and the boundary conditions are determined in the case of no external spin-polarized injection and low bias. The control parameters that may influence the NESP in NMS are indicated by calculating the distribution of spin polarization. They are the doping concentrations, the equilibrium spin polarization in MS and the bias. The effective spin-polarized injection can be realized more easily by optimizing the above parameters.

High-Density Stacked Ru Nanocrystals for Nonvolatile Memory Application

Stacked ruthenium （Ru） nanocrystals （NCs） are formed by rapid thermal annealing for the whole gate stacks and embedded in memory structure, which is compatible with conventional CMOS technology. Ru NCs with high density （3 × 10^12 cm-2）, small size （2 4nm） and good uniformity both in aerial distribution and morphology are formed. Attributed to the higher surface trap density, a memory window of 5.2 V is obtained with stacked Ru NCs in comparison to that of 3.5 V with single-layer samples. The stacked Ru NCs device also exhibits much better retention performance because of Coulomb blockade and vertical uniformity between stacked Ru NCs.

Investigation of Composition in Nano-Scaled Self-Assembled SiGe Islands

A modified model is proposed to explain the influence of Si concentration on shape transition of self-assembled SiGe islands on Si substrates. The experimental results show that the critical sizes for shape transition from pyramids to domes (44, 50 and 60hm) increase with the increasing Si concentration (0.032, 0.09 and 0.17) from sample A to C. Based on the proposed model, the quantitative relation between the Si concentration and the critical size is established. Then the composition exactly in nano-scaled self-assembled SiGe islands is calculated from the measured critical size. The result shows that the Si concentration deduced from Raman spectrum is much larger than the actual values. It is demonstrated that the quantitative relation we obtained can be used to investigate the composition in nano-scaled SiGe islands.     

Nonvolatile Memory Characteristics with Embedded High Density Ruthenium Nanocrystals

Ruthenium （Ru） nanocrystals （NCs） embedded in SiO2 gate stacks are formed by rapid thermal annealing for the whole gate stacks and embedded in the memory structure, which is compatible with conventional CMOS technology. The devices exhibit a substantial and clockwise hysteresis in capacitance-voltage measurement. The Ru NCs exhibit high density （2 × 10^12cm^-2）, small size （2-4 nm） and good uniformity both in spatial distribution and morphology. The charging and long-term retention performances are explained by the Coulomb Blockade phenomena and the asymmetric electron tunnel barrier between the Ru NCs and the Si substrate, respectively.
