  • We investigate spin transfer torque (STT) in magnetic multilayer structures using micromagnetic simulations. We implement the STT contribution for magnetic multilayer structures in addition to the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) micromagnetic simulators. In addition to the Sloncewski STT term, the zero, first, and second order field-like terms are also considered as well as the effects of the Oersted field due to the running current are addressed. We determine the switching current densities of the free layer with the exchange biased synthetic ferrimagnetic reference layers for various cases.

  • We developed an embedded Object-Oriented Micromagnetic Frame (OOMMF) script schemes for more flexible simulations for complex and dynamic mircomagnetic behaviors. The OOMMF can be called from any kind of softwares by system calls, and we can interact with OOMMF by updating the input files for next step from the output files of the previous step of OOMMF. In our scheme, we set initial inputs for OOMMF simulation first, and run OOMMF for ${\Delta}t$ by system calls from any kind of control programs. After executing the OOMMF during ${\Delta}t$, we can obtain magnetization configuration file, and we adjust input parameters, and call OOMMF again for another ${\Delta}t$ running. We showed one example by using scripting embedded OOMMF scheme, tunneling magneto-resistance dependent switching time. We showed the simulation of tunneling magneto-resistance dependent switching process with non-uniform current density using the proposed framework as an example.

  • We have prepared FePtCu L10 bit patterned media, of which magnetic properties and microstructural details are obtained by direct measurement and observations. The patterning process on the continuous film induced a drastic changes in the coercivity, SFD, and angular dependencies. The origin of the changes are explained by micromagnetic simulations with the finite element models including the details of the microstructures.

  • Dynamic behaviors of transverse domain walls (TDWs) in rectangular shaped thin-film magnetic nanowires with different widths under applied magnetic fields less than the Walker field were studied by micromagnetic simulations. It was found that the velocity of stable TDWs in the viscous region increases from 147 to 419 m/s and their mass decreases from $6.24{\times}10^{-23}\;to\;2.70{\times}10^{-23}kg$ with increasing strength of the applied magnetic field ranging from 5 to 20 Oe for the nanowire with a dimension of 10 nm in thickness and $5{\mu}m$ in length, and 50 nm in width. With increasing the width of nanowires from 50 to 125 nm at a specific field strength of 5 Oe, the TDW's velocity also increases from 147 to 246 m/s and its mass decreases from $6.24{\times}10^{-23}\;to\;5.91{\times}10^{-23}kg$.

  • We find a metastable vortex state of the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy free layer in spin transfer torque magnetic tunneling junctions by using micromagnetic simulations. The metastable vortex state does not exist in a single layer, and it is only found in the trilayer structure with the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy polarizer layer. It is revealed that the physical origin is the non-uniform stray field from the polarizer layer.
