Description

The third volume of this book addresses central aspects of spin-dynamic phenomena on a tutorial level. This volume concentrates on new experimental techniques such as ferromagnetic-resonance-force microscopy and two-photon photoemission. There is a chapter devoted to the hot subject of spin-transfer torque. The comprehensive presentation makes this a timely and valuable resource for every researcher working in the field of magnetism.

Description

Introductory chapters help newcomers to understand the basic concepts, and the more advanced chapters give the current state of the art for most spin dynamic issues in the milliseconds to femtoseconds range. Emphasis is placed on both the discussion of the experimental techniques and on the theoretical work. The comprehensive presentation of these developments makes this volume very timely and valuable for every researcher working in the field of magnetism.

Table of Contents

An Introduction to Micromagnetics in the Dynamic Regime.- Nonlinear Spinwaves in One- and Two-Dimensional Magnetic Waveguides.- Spinwaves in Laterally Confined Magnetic Structures.- Stroboscopic Microscopy of Magnetic Dynamics.- Dynamics of Magnetization Reversal: From Continuous to Patterned Ferromagnetic Films.- Small Amplitude Dynamics of Nonhomogeneous Magnetization Distributions: The Excitation Spectrum of Stripe Domains.- Frequency Domain Magnetic Measurements from Kilohertz to Gigahertz.- Laser-Induced Ultrafast Demagnetization: Femtomagnetism, a New Frontier?.- The Micromagnetics of Magnetoresistive Random Access Memory.

Description

This second volume of the book on spin dynamics in confined magnetic structures covers central aspects of spin dynamic phenomena, so that researchers can find a comprehensive compilation of the current work in the field. Introductory chapters help newcomers to understand the basic concepts, and the more advanced chapters give the current state of the art for most spin dynamic issues in the milliseconds to femtoseconds range. Both experimental techniques and theoretical work are discussed. The comprehensive presentation of these developments makes this volume very timely and valuable for every researcher working in the field of magnetism. It describes the new experimental techniques which have advanced this field very rapidly. Among the techniques covered, particular attention is given to those involving high temporal, elemental and spatial resolution as well as to techniques involving magnetic field pulses with very short rise times and durations.

Table of Contents
