Non-collinear spin transfer in Co/Cu/Co multilayers
M. D. Stiles, A. Zangwill
Abstract
This paper has two parts. The first part uses a single point of view to discuss the reflection and averaging mechanisms of spin-transfer between current-carrying electrons and the ferromagnetic layers of magnetic/non-magnetic heterostructures. The second part incorporates both effects into a matrix Boltzmann equation and reports numerical results for current polarization, spin accumulation, magnetoresistance, and spin-transfer torques for Co/Cu/Co multilayers. When possible, the results are compared quantitatively with relevant experiments.
