The Stochastic_MTJ_Model repository provides code for modelling Magnetic Tunnel Junction (MJT) devices operating with Spin-Orbit Torque, Spin-Transfer Torque, and/or Voltage Controlled Magnetic Anisotropy. The Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert (LLG) Equation is solved in spherical coordinates in time using a macrospin approximation. The numerical solve of the LLG is implemented in Fortran callable by a provided Python interface. Our work with this model has been focused on modeling MTJ devices used for true random number generation. For more information on the model and some example applications, see:
