Abstract

An example magnetic recording device includes a magnetic recording section and a magnetization oscillator and a first nonmagnetic layer disposed between the magnetic recording section and the magnetization oscillator. The magnetic recording section includes a first ferromagnetic layer with a magnetization substantially fixed in a first direction; a second ferromagnetic layer with a variable magnetization direction; and a second nonmagnetic layer disposed between the first ferromagnetic layer and the second ferromagnetic layer. The magnetization oscillator includes a third ferromagnetic layer with a variable magnetization direction; a fourth ferromagnetic layer with a magnetization substantially fixed in a second direction; and a third nonmagnetic layer disposed between the third ferromagnetic layer and the fourth ferromagnetic layer.
