Given the possible technological and scientific ramifications of skyrmion-texture on magnetic tunnel junction (ST-MTJ), in this work, we present non-equilibrium Green's function (NEGF) based description of ST-MTJs both for N\\'eel and Bloch textures, to capture the spin/charge current across different voltages, temperatures, and sizes. We predict the emergence of a textured spin current from the uniform layer of the ST-MTJs, along with a radially varying, asymmetrical voltage dependence of spin torque. We delineate the voltage-induced rotation of the spin current texture, coupled with the appearance of helicity in spin current, particularly in the case of N\\'eel skyrmions on MTJs. We describe the TMR roll-off in ST-MTJ with lower cross-sectional area and higher temperature based on transmission spectra analysis. We also introduce a computationally efficient coupled spatio-eigen framework of NEGF to address the 3D-NEGF requirement of the ST-MTJs. With analytical underpinning, we establish the generic nature of the spatio-eigen framework of NEGF, alleviating the sine-qua-non of the 3D-NEGF for systems that lack transnational invariance and simultaneous eigen-basis in the transverse directions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2024-03-20T09:26:59.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "magnetic tunnel junction", "interweaving quantum transport", "micro-magnetism", "spin current texture", "non-trivial magnetic textures" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
