(a) A schematic configuration of a STNO with IP and OP dual polarizers. (b) Comparison of magnetization switching driven by spin-torques excited by dual polarizers (red-curve) and by a single IP polarizer (blue-curve). (c) Phase diagram of the free layer magnetization dynamics dependence on the spin-torques strengths generated from the IP and OP polarizers. (d) Oscillation frequency dependence on the spin-torque strengths at a fixed OP spin-torque (a) and a fixed IP spin-torque.
