| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, improvement of low drive current and high speed in stacked nanowire memories by utilizing current-induced domain wall motion has been studied. The spin polarization of TbFeCo films was estimated through domain wall resistance, and its spin polarization of 0.16 was experimentally obtained. Influence of classical electromagnetic effect, especially drive current through seed layer, on domain wall motion has been investigated. As a result, the in-plane component due to current field from seed layer enhances domain wall speed. The influence of interlayer coupling on domain wall motion in bilayer nanowires has been also investigated. The anti-ferromagnetic coupling between magnetic layers remarkably improves domain wall speed. We concluded that combination of bilayer structure with spin-orbit-torque is expected to further enhance domain wall speed.
