The possibility to excite large angle steady-state precessions of the free layer magnetisation in spin valves or magnetic tunnel junctions, using a spin polarised DC current, has recently attracted much attention. These steady state precessions, in combination with the magneto-resistance of such devices, open new applications of spin electronics materials such as wide band tuneable radio frequency (RF) oscillators. While previous spin transfer oscillators (STO) were based on in-plane magnetized structures, here we present the realization of an STO that contains a perpendicular polarizer combined with an in-plane magnetized free layer. The static and dynamic transport experiments validate the theoretical predictions for this configuration which will be of interest for the design of STOs having improved output signals and being operated in zero fields and at currents close to the threshold current Ic.
