Rashba-induced chirality switching of domain walls and suppression of the Walker breakdown

We investigate the current-induced motion of ferromagnetic domain walls in the presence of a Rashba spin-orbit interaction of the itinerant electrons. We show how a Rashba interaction can stabilize the domain wall motion, such that the Walker breakdown is shifted to larger current densities. The Ras...
