Cyclic resistance change in perpendicularly magnetized Co/Ni nanowire induced by alternating current pulse injection

We report on cyclic anisotropic magnetoresistance change induced by current pulse injection in perpendicularly magnetized Co/Ni nanowire. By alternating the polarity of the injection pulse, domain walls (DWs) can be deterministically created and annihilated within the nanowire. The injection induces...

description We report on cyclic anisotropic magnetoresistance change induced by current pulse injection in perpendicularly magnetized Co/Ni nanowire. By alternating the polarity of the injection pulse, domain walls (DWs) can be deterministically created and annihilated within the nanowire. The injection induces a combined effect of spin transfer torque and Oersted field that leads to simultaneous creation and driving of DWs in the nanowire. DW created by single pulse injection exhibits a fixed depinning field. For multi-pulse injection, the depinning field increases and this is ascribed to the formation of DWs with opposite chirality.
