▼ [14p-P10-42] Junction size dependence of damping constans in nanoscale CoFEB/MgO magnetic tunnel junctions
Keywords:magnetic tunnel junction, damping constant
In the previous studies on p-MTJs, the FMR was measured under in-plane magnetic fields. The tilt of magnetization of the free layer resulted in extrinsic contributions to spectral linewidths. In this study, we measure FMR of nanoscale MTJs with a free layer with perpendicular easy axis and a reference layer with in-plane easy direction under a perpendicular magnetic field in order to suppress the extrinsic contributions and evaluate a damping constant in the free layer.
