The stress-induced switching behavior of a multiferroic nanomagnet, dipole coupled to a hard nanomagnet, is numerically studied by solving the stochastic Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation for a single-domain macrospin state. Different factors were found to affect the switching probability in the presence of thermal noise at room temperature: 1) dipole coupling strength, 2) stress levels, and 3) stress withdrawal rates (ramp rates). We report that the thermal broadening of the magnetization distribution causes large switching error rates. This could render nanomagnetic logic schemes that rely on dipole coupling to perform Boolean logic operations impractical whether they are clocked by stress or field or other means.

Spin Wave Electromagnetic Nano-Antenna Enabled by Tripartite Phonon-Magnon-Photon Coupling

Raisa Fabiha, Jonathan Lundquist, Sudip Majumder, Erdem Topsakal, Anjan Barman, Supriyo Bandyopadhyay

Summary: This study investigates the tripartite coupling between phonons, magnons, and photons in a periodic array of elliptical magnetostrictive nanomagnets on a piezoelectric substrate to form a 2D two-phase multiferroic crystal. The phonons launch surface acoustic waves (SAW) that cause the spin-wave modes (magnons) within the nanomagnets to radiate electromagnetic waves (photons). This phonon-magnon-photon coupling is exploited to implement an extreme sub-wavelength electromagnetic antenna with significantly higher radiation efficiency and antenna gain compared to traditional antennas of the same size.

Voltage-Controlled Energy-Efficient Domain Wall Synapses With Stochastic Distribution of Quantized Weights in the Presence of Thermal Noise and Edge Roughness

Walid Al Misba, Tahmid Kaisar, Dhritiman Bhattacharya, Jayasimha Atulasimha

Summary: In this study, an energy-efficient voltage-induced strain control of a domain wall in a perpendicularly magnetized nanoscale racetrack on a piezoelectric substrate is proposed to implement multi-state synapses. Micromagnetic simulations show that five-state and three-state synapses can be achieved without the need for fabricating notches, and the system has an energy consumption of approximately 1 fJ, making it attractive for energy-efficient quantized neural networks.

A spintronic analog of the Landauer residual resistivity dipole on the surface of a topological insulator containing a line defect *

Raisa Fabiha, Supriyo Bandyopadhyay

Summary: This study demonstrates that in spin polarized electron transport on a real topological insulator surface, a local spin imbalance is formed when electrons reflect from a line defect, resulting in a spin current and the formation of a microscopic electric dipole. This affects the electrical resistivity of the medium and leads to spatially varying local magnetic fields.

Strained topological insulator spin field effect transistor

Supriyo Bandyopadhyay

Summary: The concept of spin field effect transistor, which manipulates the spin degree of freedom instead of charge degree of freedom, has been studied for three decades. A new concept introduces a spin field effect transistor that does not rely on spin-orbit interaction but uses a strained topological insulator thin film to elicit transistor function by modifying the energy dispersion relation and rotating the spins of the carriers. Although it may not be useful as a switch, it has potential applications such as an energy-efficient single-transistor frequency multiplier.

Energy Efficient Learning With Low Resolution Stochastic Domain Wall Synapse for Deep Neural Networks

Walid Al Misba, Mark Lozano, Damien Querlioz, Jayasimha Atulasimha

Summary: We demonstrate that extremely low resolution quantized synapses with large stochastic variations in synaptic weights can achieve high testing accuracies comparable to Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) with floating-point precision synaptic weights. We propose in-situ and ex-situ training algorithms based on modified algorithms and train 5-layer DNNs on MNIST dataset using 2-, 3- and 5-state DW devices as synapses. The highest inference accuracies obtained after in-situ and ex-situ training are close to 96.67% and 96.63% respectively, which is similar to the baseline accuracy of 97.1% obtained from DNN with floating-point precision weights. Our proposed approach demonstrates potential energy savings of at least two orders of magnitude compared to the floating-point approach implemented in CMOS. It is particularly attractive for low power intelligent edge devices.
