Efficient micromagnetic modelling of spin-transfer torque and spin-orbit torque
AIP Advances, 2018 While the spin-diffusion model is considered one of the most complete and accurate tools for the description of spin transport and spin torque, its solution in the context of dynamical micromagnetic simulations is numerically expensive.

MODELS OF SPIN TORQUE USING SELF-CONSISTENT SOLUTIONS OF THE MAGNETISATION AND SPIN ACCUMULATION [PDF]
, 2013 A model of spin accumulation (m) is proposed to develop theoretical approaches to calculate the m in any arbitrary magnetic structure. The model is based on generalising the approach of Zhang, Levy and Fert (PRL 88, 236601, 2002).

Efficient conversion of orbital Hall current to spin current for spin-orbit torque switching [PDF]
, 2021 Spin Hall effect, an electric generation of spin current, allows for efficient control of magnetization. Recent theory revealed that orbital Hall effect creates orbital current, which can be much larger than spin Hall-induced spin current.

Strong variation of spin-orbit torques with relative spin relaxation rates in ferrimagnets
Nature Communications, 2023 There has been a lot of interest in using antiferromagnets for magnetic memories, due to their fast dynamics, and resilience to stray fields. Such a memory was supposed to be switched by a spin-orbit torque. Here, Zhu and Ralph find that as a ferrimagnet
