Zero-dc-field rotation-direction-dependent magnetization switching induced by a circularly polarized microwave magnetic field

Abstract Magnetization switching of high-anisotropy nanomagnets by a small magnetic field is a key challenge in developing future magnetic nanodevices. In this paper, we experimentally demonstrate magnetization switching of a perpendicularly magnetized nanomagnet induced solely by an in-plane circul...
