Spin-torque oscillator

A spin-torque oscillator comprising:

• a non-magnetic unit formed of a non-magnetic body;
• one or more first magnetic units connected to the non-magnetic unit and generating a pure spin current indicating the flow of the electron spin that does not accompany an electric charge current;
• and
• a second magnetic unit connected to the non-magnetic unit in a manner such that a distance between the second magnetic unit and the one or more first magnetic units is shorter than a spin diffusion length indicating a distance that an electronic spin polarization is maintained in the non-magnetic unit, the second magnetic unit oscillating by the pure spin current,
• wherein if the oscillator comprises two first magnetic units, the magnetization direction of one of the two first magnetic units and the magnetization direction of the other first magnetic unit are aligned in an anti-parallel manner, and the non-magnetic unit is placed between the two first magnetic units, and
• a first lead line to apply a current to one first magnetic unit and a second lead line to measure an output signal from the second magnetic unit is connected to the non-magnetic unit, each of the first lead line and the second lead line is connected to a first interface between the one first magnetic unit and the non-magnetic unit and the second interface between the second magnetic unit and the non-magnetic unit with a distance greater than the spin diffusion length, the spin diffusion length being of a material to which the first lead line and the second line are connected.
