Abstract

Abstract We show that antiferromagnetic or ferromagnetic coupling between Co layers strongly affects the switching behavior of Co/Cu/Co nanopillars, changing hysteretic switching at low magnetic field to nonhysteretic. We describe the behavior in terms of current-assisted thermal activation over a barrier.
