This paper shows that the presence of two dynamical regimes, characterized by different precessional axes, is the origin of the nonmonotonic behavior of the output integrated power for large-amplitude magnetization precession driven by spin-polarized current in nanoscale exchange-biased spin valves. In particular, an abrupt loss in the integrated output power exists at the transition current between those two regimes. After the introduction of a time-frequency analysis of magnetization dynamics based on the wavelet transform, we performed a numerical experiment by means of micromagnetic simulations. Our results predicted that, together with a modulation of the frequency of the main excited mode of the magnetization precession, at high nonlinear dynamical regime the instantaneous output power of the spin-torque oscillator can disappear and then reappear at nanosecond scale.

Abstract
This paper shows that the presence of two dynamical regimes, characterized by different precessional axes, is the origin of the nonmonotonic behavior of the output integrated power for large-amplitude magnetization precession driven by spin-polarized current in nanoscale exchange-biased spin valves. In particular, an abrupt loss in the integrated output power exists at the transition current between those two regimes. After the introduction of a time-frequency analysis of magnetization dynamics based on the wavelet transform, we performed a numerical experiment by means of micromagnetic simulations. Our results predicted that, together with a modulation of the frequency of the main excited mode of the magnetization precession, at high nonlinear dynamical regime the instantaneous output power of the spin-torque oscillator can disappear and then reappear at nanosecond scale.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
