After a decade of research, large expectations have been anticipated on how the rich physics of spin transfer induced magnetization dynamics could give birth to a new generation of multi-functional microwave spintronic devices. One major issue of spin-torque nano-oscillators (STNOs) is their relatively poor spectral coherence given by their highly nonlinear behavior. Within this work, we tackle this concern and could efficiently control the phase noise of vortex based STNOs by implementation of an integrated Phase Locked Loop (PLL) circuit. Focussing on vortex based STOs presenting higher spectral coherences than other kinds of STOs, a reduction of phase noise by more than 50dB at 10kHz from the carrier frequency is achieved under various field and current conditions.
