Current-induced Magnetization Switching

Current-Induced Magnetization Switching is a spintronic phenomenon in which the magnetization orientation of a ferromagnetic layer is reversibly altered through the application of a spin-polarized electric current, as opposed to an external magnetic field, primarily mediated by spin-transfer torque or spin–orbit torque mechanisms.
