Octupole-driven spin torque switching of antiferromagnetic tunnel junctions - Nature

All-antiferromagnetic tunnel junctions can display both a large TMR and a reciprocal switching effect, octupole-driven spin-transfer torque, enabling nanoscale magnetic memory and potentially room-temperature terahertz spintronic devices.
