Optimal field-free magnetization switching via spin-orbit torque on the surface of a topological insulator

Abstract We present an optimal field-free protocol for current-induced switching of a perpendicularly magnetized ferromagnetic insulator nanoelement on the surface of a topological insulator. The time dependence of in-plane components of the surface current, which drives the magnetization reversal v...
