Abstract

We present an implementation of the steady state Keldysh approach in a Green’s function multiple scattering scheme to calculate the nonequilibrium spin density. This density is used to obtain the spin-transfer torque in junctions showing the magnetoresistance effect. We use our implementation to study the spin-transfer torque in metallic Co∕Cu∕Co junctions.
