Micromagnetic simulation of electric-field-assisted magnetization switching in perpendicular magnetic tunnel junction

The feasibility of a voltage assisted unipolar switching in perpendicular magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) has been studied using a micromagnetic simulation. Assuming a linear modulation of anisotropy field with voltage, both parallel (P) to anti-parallel (AP) and AP to P switchings were observed by a...
