| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have proposed our novel bottom-up formation method to create lateral and vertical nanowires (NW), which are promising for the application to low-power-consumption three-dimensional magnetic racetrack memory devices in next generation. Magnetic properties of various types of the NWs were investigated, and nanodevice fabrication processes were developed. It was still difficult to create vertical ferromagnetic MnAs NWs. However, we successfully fabricated various types of NW structures, e.g., lateral ferromagnetic NWs, vertical MnAs/InAs heterojunction NWs, and lateral NW spin-valve devices. Under the international cooperative research with our German colleague, we succeeded in controlling magnetic domain structures in the NWs by the applied external magnetic fields and magnetic shape anisotropy and understanding the contribution of thermally activated switching in the magnetic domain structures to the observed magnetic random telegraph noise.
