Abstract
Owing to improved thermal stability and scalability, materials with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy (PMA) are extremely attractive. The all perpendicular magnetic tunnel junction ([Formula: see text]-MTJ) devices are primarily devoted to spin transfer torque (STT)-induced switching and few works report their microwave emission. Here, we demonstrate the basic results of RF function in nanoscale [Formula: see text]-MTJ which has two different thickness free layers separated by atom-thick tungsten insertion. The ultrathin W spacer layer not only enables the two CoFeB free layers precess as a single layer but also greatly enhances the PMA which further induces high-emission frequency. The all perpendicular spin transfer torque nano-oscillator (STNO) exhibited high frequency (7.6[Formula: see text]GHz) and large current modulation capability of [Formula: see text] at moderate external magnetic field. Along with our previous work on STT switching utilizing the similar stack, such a multifunctional structure could bring low cost solutions to Internet of Things (IoT) network applications.
