Magnetic domain-wall velocity enhancement induced by a transverse magnetic field

General planar transverse domain walls realized by optimized transverse magnetic field pulses in magnetic biaxial nanowires

The statics and field-driven dynamics of transverse domain walls (TDWs) in magnetic nanowires (NWs) have attracted continuous interests because of their theoretical significance and application potential in future magnetic logic and memory devices. Recent results demonstrate that uniform transverse magnetic fields (TMFs) can greatly enhance the wall velocity, meantime leave a twisting in the TD...

Domain wall motion driven by an oscillating magnetic field

The coherent unidirectional motion of magnetic domain walls (DWs) is a key technology used in memory and logic device applications, as demonstrated in magnetic strips by electric current flow as well as in films by oscillation of a tilted magnetic field. Here we introduce a coherent unidirectional motion of DWs in the strip, utilizing an oscillating field, which is described within a previous 1...

Locally induced domain wall damping in a thin magnetic wire

The damping mechanisms affecting the motion of a single domain wall were studied in a thin bistable magnetic wire. It was found that the overall damping is frequency and temperature dependent through the locally induced anisotropy via structural relaxation. This phenomenon can increase the overall damping by one order of magnitude and enables an effective tailoring of the domain wall dynamics a...

Nonlinear domain-wall velocity enhancement by spin-polarized electric current.

The interaction between a dc spin-polarized electric current and a magnetic domain wall in a Permalloy nanowire was studied by high-bandwidth scanning Kerr polarimetry. The full functional dependence of wall velocity on electric current and magnetic field is presented. With the pinning potential nulled by a field, current-induced velocity enhancements exceeded 35 m/s at a current density of app...
