Pattern generation and symbolic dynamics in a nanocontact vortex oscillator
Résumé
Harnessing chaos or intrinsic nonlinear behaviours of dynamical systems is a promising avenue toward unconventional information processing technologies. In this light, spintronic devices are promising because of the inherent nonlinearity of magnetization dynamics. Here, we demonstrate experimentally the potential for chaos-based schemes using nanocontact vortex oscillators by unveiling and characterizing their waveform patterns and symbolic dynamics using time-resolved electrical measurements. We dissociate nonlinear determi-nistic patterns from thermal fluctuations and show that the emergence of chaos results in the unpredictable alternation of well-defined patterns. With phase-space reconstruction techniques , we perform symbolic analyses of the time series and show that the oscillator exhibits maximal entropy and complexity at the centre of its incommensurate region. This suggests that such vortex-based systems are promising nanoscale sources of entropy that could be exploited for information processing.
