We report that by heating samples the critical current density for magnetization reversal (J(c)) in a single perpendicularly magnetized layer can be decreased from 2.6 x 10(7) A/cm(2) to about 1 x 10(6) A/cm(2) for a temperature increase of 143K. The nonlinear dependence of J(c) on the perpendicular anisotropy field indicates that the coherent magnetic switching model cannot fully explain the current-induced perpendicular switching. By considering the current-induced domain nucleation and expansion during switching, we conclude that J(c), also depends on current-induced domain behavior. Moreover, by reversing the heat flow direction, we demonstrate that the thermal related spin transfer torques have little influence on the thermally assisted magnetic switching.
