Micromagnetics has been the method of choice to interpret experimental data in the area of
microscopic magnetism for several decades. In this article, we show how progress has been …

Perovskite manganites exhibit a broad range of structural, electronic, and magnetic
properties, which are widely investigated since the discovery of the colossal …

Electrical manipulation of magnetic materials by current-induced spin torque constitutes the
basis of spintronics. Here, we show an unconventional response to spin–orbit torque of a …

This review describes in detail the essential techniques used in microscopic theories on
spintronics. We have investigated the domain wall dynamics induced by an electric current …

Electrical currents flowing in ferromagnetic materials are spin-polarised as a result of the
spin-dependent band structure. When the spatial direction of the polarisation changes, in a …

accepted September 14, 2006; published November 10, 2006) Effects of conduction
electrons on magnetization dynamics, represented by spin torques, are calculated …

Current-driven magnetization dynamics in ferromagnetic metals is studied in a self-
consistent adiabatic local-density approximation in the presence of spin-conserving and …

Topological magnetic textures—like skyrmions—are major players in the design of next-
generation magnetic storage technology due to their stability and the control of their motion …

We report that synthetic antiferromagnets (SAFs) can be efficiently switched by spin-orbit
torques (SOTs) and the switching scheme does not obey the usual SOT switching rule. We …

We give a brief account of recent developments in the theoretical understanding of the
interaction between electric currents and inhomogeneous ferromagnetic order parameters …
