Abstract
A recent proposal called all spin logic (ASL) proposes to store information in nanomagnets that communicate with spin currents in order to construct spin based digital circuits. We present a coupled magnetodynamics/spin-transport model for ASL devices that is based on established physics and is benchmarked against available experimental data. This model is used to show the linear dependence of switching energy and quadratic dependence of energy-delay of ASL devices on the number of Bohr magnetons comprising a nanomagnet. A scaling scheme that could lower the energy-delay of spin-torque switching while maintaining thermal stability is discussed.
