Abstract:The stability is analyzed of the equilibrium configurations of a magnetic junction with a free layer that has cubic symmetry and two anisotropy axes in the layer plane. Different variants of the switching between various configurations are considered. A possibility is shown of the substantial lowering of the threshold current density needed for the switching. Numerical simulation is made of the switching dynamics for various configurations.
