Abstract

Current induced magnetization switching and resistance associated with domain walls pinned in nanoconstrictions have both been previously reported in (Ga,Mn)As based devices, but using very dissimilar experimental schemes and device geometries. Here we report on the simultaneous observation of both effects in a single nanodevice, which constitutes a significant step forward towards the eventual realization of spintronic devices which make use of domain walls to store, transport, and manipulate information.
