Stable magnetic droplet solitons in spin-transfer nanocontacts

Magnetic droplet solitons are shown to be stable excitations that can be controlled by applied magnetic fields and electrical currents in thin films with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. Magnetic thin films with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy have localized excitations that correspond to revers...
