Spin-polarized current effect is studied on the static and dynamic magnetization of the antiferromagnet in a ferromagnet - antiferromagnet nanojunction. The macrospin approximation is generalized to antiferromagnets. Canted antiferromagnetic configuration and resulting magnetic moment are induced by an external magnetic field. The resonance frequency and damping are calculated, as well as the threshold current density corresponding to instability appearance. A possibility is shown of generating low-damping magnetization oscillations in terahertz range. The fluctuation effect is discussed on the canted antiferromagnetic configuration. Numerical simulation is carried out of the magnetization dynamics of the antiferromagnetic layer in the nanojunction with spin-polarized current. Outside the instability range, the simulation results coincide completely with analytical calculations using linear approximation. In the instability range, undamped oscillations occur of the longitudinal and transverse magnetization components.
