The concept of building logically functional networks employing spintronics or magnetic heterostructures is becoming more and more popular today. Incorporating logical segments into a circuit needs physical bonds between the magnetic molecules or clusters involved. In this framework, we systematically study ultrafast laser-induced spin-manipulation scenarios on a closed system of three carbon chains to which three Ni atoms are attached. After the inclusion of spin-orbit coupling and an external magnetic field, different ultrafast spin dynamics scenarios involving spin-flip and long-distance spin-transfer processes are achieved by various appropriately well-tailored time-resolved laser pulses within subpicosecond timescales. We additionally study the various effects of an external magnetic field on spin-flip and spin-transfer processes. Moreover, we obtain spin-dynamics processes induced by a double laser pulse, rather than a single one. We suggest enhancing the spatial addressability of spin-flip and spin-transfer processes. The findings presented in this article will improve our knowledge of the magnetic properties of carbon-based magnetic molecular structures. They also support the relevant experimental realization of spin dynamics and their potential applications in future molecular spintronics devices.

Ultrashort laser pulses are extensively used for efficient manipulation of interfacial spin injection in two-dimensional van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures. However, physical processes accompanying the photoinduced spin transfer dynamics on the all-semiconductor ferromagnetic vdW heterostructure remain largely unexplored. Here, we present a computational investigation of the femtosecond laser pulse induced purely electron-mediated spin transfer dynamics at a time scale of less than 50 fs in a vdW heterostructure.

Cryo-SIMPLY: A Reliable STT-MRAM-Based Smart Material Implication Architecture for In-Memory Computing.

This paper presents Cryo-SIMPLY, a reliable smart material implication (SIMPLY) operating at cryogenic conditions (77 K). The assessment considers SIMPLY schemes based on spin-transfer torque magnetic random access memory (STT-MRAM) technology with single-barrier magnetic tunnel junction (SMTJ) and double-barrier magnetic tunnel junction (DMTJ). Our study relies on a temperature-aware macrospin-based Verilog-A compact model for MTJ devices and a 65 nm commercial process design kit (PDK) calibrated down to 77 K under silicon measurements.

Article Synopsis
  • Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) and quantum technologies utilize the spin transfer in electron-nuclear quantum systems, but larger couplings like hyperfine interactions can hinder these processes.
  • The Schrieffer-Wolff transformation is applied to analyze a system of two electrons and two nuclei, focusing on polarization-transfer methods, including an energy-conserving electron-nuclear four-spin flip-flop.
  • The study connects magnetic resonance and quantum information, demonstrating a model where all nuclear spins can aid in hyperpolarization without being impeded by a spin diffusion barrier in DNP.

A bis(triarylamine) (BTA) radical cation, bridged by two o-terphenylene moieties, was prepared and characterized to explore the impact of the double-π-bridge on the intramolecular charge/spin transfer process in the 2-site organic mixed-valence (MV) compound. Spectroscopic analyses on optically and thermally assisted intervalence charge-transfer (IVCT) processes revealed that the doubly π-bridging enhanced the charge delocalization between two nitrogen redox-active centers, whereas the electronic coupling was not so strengthened, in comparison with the singly π-bridging reference compound.
